Ingredients

• 2 cups Pecans
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 pinch Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and just warmed through, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the pecans to the saucepan and stir until they are evenly coated with the honey mixture.

Step 4

Spread the coated pecans out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring the pecans halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.

Step 6

Remove the pecans from the oven and immediately sprinkle them with the granulated sugar while they are still warm. Toss gently to coat.

Step 7

Allow the pecans to cool completely on the baking sheet. They will harden as they cool, creating a crunchy texture.

Step 8

Transfer the cooled pecans to an airtight container for storage, or enjoy them immediately as a snack.
