Ingredients

• 2 cups pecan halves
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the honey, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until fully combined.

Step 3

Place the pecan halves in a large mixing bowl. Pour the honey mixture over the pecans and gently stir until all the pecans are evenly coated.

Step 4

Spread the coated pecans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the pecans to cool completely. They will firm up as they cool.

Step 7

Once cooled, transfer the honey roasted pecans to an airtight container for storage, or serve immediately. Enjoy as a snack, salad topping, or dessert garnish!
