Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place pecans, egg white, and sugar in a medium bowl. Stir to coat the pecans completely.
- Spread out pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake until golden brown, about 10 to 14 minutes, turning the nuts to ensure that they are baking evenly.
Try mixing the sugar with spices you like: I use 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp cloves, 1/4 tsp allspice, 1/4 ginger. Then coat the nut with egg white and add to the spice mixture. Place on tray and bake as directed above. Yummy!
