Ingredients

• 2 cups Pecans
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Sea salt
• 1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the chopped rosemary, brown sugar, sea salt, and cayenne pepper until fully combined. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

Place the pecans in a large mixing bowl. Pour the butter and seasoning mixture over the pecans and toss thoroughly to coat all the nuts evenly.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even roasting. Keep a close eye during the last few minutes to avoid burning.

Step 6

Remove the pecans from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes. They will crisp up as they cool.

Step 7

Transfer the cooled pecans to a serving bowl or an airtight container for storage. Enjoy immediately or store for up to 1 week.
