Serves: 2 cups
Ingredients
  • 2 cups of halved pecans
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil (softened into a liquid - I used the microwave)
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 pinches of cayenned
  • 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
  1. Set your oven to 350 degrees F
  2. Mix the pecans with the maple syrup and coconut oil in a large mixing bowl
  3. Add the dry ingredients, and mix carefully to not break the pecans
  4. Lay out on a baking sheet
  5. Bake for 10 minutes, checking to make sure they don't over roast
  6. Let cool and enjoy!
Notes
These will store up to several months (like any nut) in a plastic sealed bag or mason jar in your pantry.
