Description
I love spiced nuts. Normally a winter holiday treat, I’ve found some good ways to put these mouthwatering morsels to use all year round. I’ve used at least a dozen recipes, but have at last found a winner. The mixture is wonderful on almonds as well!
Ingredients
- 1 whole Egg White
- 2 cups Pecans- Whole Or Chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cold Water
- 4 Tablespoons White Sugar
- 4 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
- ½ teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoons Salt
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 250 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg white until frothy. Add the pecans and stir until coated. In a separate bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients. Pour evenly over the pecans and stir to coat. Spread the nuts evenly on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet.
Roast for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Allow to cool before eating. The nuts will be a little chewy until completely cool. They will be crunchy when cool! Store in an airtight container.
What to do with the nuts:
Feed them to hubby. Whenever I make a batch, they disappear quickly!
Add to salads to add a touch of sweet.
Add to cookies or other desserts. They would be fantastic in chocolate chip cookies!
The nuts are amazing on caramel apples. I used to make the apples with caramel, spiced pecans, and then coat everything in white chocolate. It’s also fabulous as caramel turtles. Yum!
The nuts can be put in small cello bags, tied with a ribbon, and used as gifts!

I’ve lost my spiced pecan recipe and yours is very similar with the exception of the brown sugar, mine had all white sugar. Thanks for sharing, I’m going to try it out with the brown sugar, sounds great.
