Honey-Roasted Pecans
Great treat for cocktail parties and a nice gift for a hostess or the holidays
Ingredients
- 1 32 oz bag pecans
- 2 cups turbinado sugar
- 4 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup honey
Instructions
- Spread 1/2 bag of pecans on a cookie sheet. Place in 350 degree oven for 12-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until well roasted
- Over medium heat on stove, heat 1/4 cup of honey and 2 tablespoons of butter to a boil. Reduce to a simmer for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add pecans to honey butter mixture and stir for 2 minutes.
- Use slotted spoon to remove nuts to cool on parchment paper. Spread out to cool.
- Repeat for the other half of the pecans.
Notes
You can do this with almonds. Just roast longer - more like 20 minutes. You might be happy with pecans cooked 12 minutes.
