Candied Pecans that are Tastier AND Less Expensive

[@christianabaeza5502]

Thank you! So easy to make. Will make great gifts if I don't eat them all first.

[@SugarSpunRun]

Haha, good luck with that! 😉

[@jodistaton392]

Oh my gosh Sam, I’ve always wanted to make these for gifts, but haven’t taken the time to look up a recipe, and wow today…you gave me the easiest recipe to make them!!! I can’t wait. Thank you so much for sharing your, in my eye, professional pallet lol and recipes!!!

[@SugarSpunRun]

They're super easy to make! I hope you enjoy them! 😊

[@sherrysoong94]

Made this yesterday! They were wonderful and baked up perfectly on a silpat. So yummy! Thanks for the recipe and Happy Holidays to you and your family.

[@SugarSpunRun]

Wonderful! Happy holidays to you as well 😊

[@BuddyDanger]

@@SugarSpunRunoh my gosh Sam…You are absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!

[@hudgonsphotography]

Loved this recipe!!! We had left over pecans from a pecan pie and this recipe was awesome. Cooked them on a silpat and they were perfect. I will be making these again.

[@SugarSpunRun]

Wonderful! I'm so happy you like them 😊

[@nancycronin601]

Look scrumptious. Will be making this week.

[@SugarSpunRun]

Great! Let me know how you like it 😊

[@susandavis3544]

You always have such great recipes to share! Thank you.

[@SugarSpunRun]

Thanks so much 😊

[@dougkapfenstein7184]

I have a “twist” to these-I add 1/4 teaspoon reaper powder to each type of nut so they all get a little kick. Good for those that like a little heat with their sweet.

[@SugarSpunRun]

Sounds interesting! I'm not a spicy foods person, but I bet others would love to try it. Thanks for the tip! :)

[@cymonesinspirations]

Or cayenne pepper!

[@jasonhumphries9434]

Pecans are my favorite nuts & I’m so looking forward to making this. Thank you for sharing.❤

[@SugarSpunRun]

I hope you love them! :)

[@tiffanytaylor9240]

Delicious! Just baked these with the Mediterranean pasta salad. So Good!!

[@SugarSpunRun]

I'm so glad you enjoyed them so much! :)

[@BigPeter1313]

Thank you so much for this. I had collected a bunch of big pecans in Georgia and already cracked and smoked them. I plan on using your recipe to make for Christmas gifts as well as my seasonings. Subscribed!!

[@SugarSpunRun]

What a great gift! I hope everyone loves them! :)

[@lydiamorales7570]

Made these today, they are a hit! Thank you for sharing.

[@SugarSpunRun]

You're welcome! I'm glad they were such a hit! :)

[@trifectawinnings7755]

Tried it and loved it. It is easy and tasty. Thank you for sharing! I'll try to share them also. 😁

[@dipi4603]

Making these right now and the kitchen smells delicious!

[@SugarSpunRun]

I hope you love them! 😊

[@luke125]

You should do a New Orleans style praline recipe Sam. Love me some pralines.

[@PjMeh]

I think I'm going to try these and in lieu of salt, use some Slap Yo Mama seasoning. 🤔

[@cathygreenwood773]

Hey! I made these this morning ND wow they are so good! I could not find any candied pecans in the store for my salad tonight and man am I happy about that! I think I will give out as gifts alo g with my homemade vanilla which is also so much better than store bought! Thank you! I did subscribe!

[@SugarSpunRun]

Thank you for following along! I’m glad you enjoyed them! 😊

[@deliaforet8997]

Hi Sam, I just wanted to let you know that I did the spicy candied cashews. I followed your recipe from the candied pecans and added a quarter teaspoon of roasted ground Chili Thai pepper. It came out great, sweet, salty, and spicy

[@deliaforet8997]

I was able to get two pint size jars. How much would you sell this for if you did sell them. I've had people ask about it. Could you help with the prices as to what would be good and fair.

[@SugarSpunRun]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! I appreciate the feedback to make it spicy. That sounds really tasty. Unfortunately I don't know how I would price them to sell. That's really not my area of expertise. I wish I could be more helpful there. :(

[@deliaforet8997]

@Sugar Spun Run merry Christmas to you and your family. I gave the candied cashews and pecans as gifts.

[@kathybray7156]

Amazing snack thanks

A very interesting recipe, the nuts must be very tasty😋👍

They certainly are! Let me know if you try them 😊

These are too good! I made them tonight for a Christmas party tomorrow and it's taking every ounce of my strength to not eat them all myself!

[@marcellef8302]

Thank you for the recipe. I want to use demerara sugar and cayenne pepper, for a bit of a kick. What ratio would you recommend? Thank you!

[@SugarSpunRun]

I honestly haven’t tried it. I would certainly go lighter on the cayenne to make sure it’s not too spicy. I hope you love it!

[@LuzMartinez-if1dw]

Made these amazing , thank you , can I use almonds or other nuts ?

[@SugarSpunRun]

I'm so glad you like them 🙂 Absolutely!

[@toniarend9090]

Those are so so good!!

Glad you like them! 😊

[@rgeorge9260]

Question: I was thinking MAYBE a good, additional ingredient, MIGHT work here, and add flavor: a 1/2 tablespoon, or tablespoon of butter (in the wet ingredients). Not sure if this would work, in the end. Maybe the pecans wouldn't 'dry' so well, after baking them? That would be a bummer, since the best part about these is the end result is dry, individualized, candied pecans (pralines). I need these to make praline ice cream! I was just thinking a little butter MIGHT add a bit of a buttery flavor. Thoughts? Thank You!

[@cheriekalel9578]

Perhaps a small amount of butter extract?

[@rgeorge9260]

@@cheriekalel9578 Oh! That's a great idea! I'm certainly going to try that! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@bof.930]

Could I use mixed nuts instead of just pecans?

[@SugarSpunRun]

Yes! Enjoy!

[@deliaforet8997]

I've never tried making them. I will now thank you for the tutorial. Do you have a recipe for sweet and spicy nuts? Thank you and Merry Christmas.

[@SugarSpunRun]

I don't, but I can add it to my list! 😊

[@deliaforet8997]

@Sugar Spun Run I made your recipe for the candied pecans to day they are really good is an understatement. They're out of the ballpark good. Can this recipe also be used for cashews You're right about it being cheaper to make than buying them. Thank you so much for the recipe.

[@SugarSpunRun]

That’s awesome! I’m glad you enjoyed them. Cashews will work well here too. 😊

[@penneyburgess5431]

Thank you! Does monk fruit work the same as sugar? I am thinking of making these for a friend with diabetes.

[@SugarSpunRun]

I honestly don't know for sure. I think it's finer and lighter than regular granulated sugar. I also believe monk fruit sweetener is a bit sweeter than granulated sugar so a 1 to 1 substitute may be a lot and unfortunately without having tried it I can't say exactly how to do it. :(

[@belindarast5279]

[@sandraromero5899]

I have walnut pieces that I would like use instead of half walnut pieces. Would the oven temperature and the amount of time to bake change at all? I'm also making pumpkin bread and I would like to sprinkle these candied nuts on top. Do you have a suggestion on how to get them to stick to the top of the bread? I'm afraid that if I put them on top of the batter prior to baking the bread, the candied walnuts will burn and if I wait until afyer the bread is baked, they won't stick to the bread.

[@carlamarie8680]

Try doing a light glaze drizzle over the nuts on top of the bread

[@christinafaught1560]

Could you tell me how much you'd sub for maple glued pecans instead of that amount of granulated sugar? Also how would that affect the heat time and temp? Oh and thanks so much for the oil and butter tip from your cake recipes!

[@SugarSpunRun]

Unfortunately without having tried it I can't say for sure how to do it. :(

Try spraying the pan with PAM before putting down the parchment paper - it helps to stick it a little better so it doesnt slide around. Great recipe!

[@SugarSpunRun]

Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try it next time. 😊

[@rhonda0713]

No thanks to the toxic Pam

[@brandonellis6194]

What temp on the preheated oven?

[@steveruckman5401]

250

Me too! 😊

[@rpraveena5445]

I didn't froth the egg and water with the vanilla essence. i just poured everything. is that okay:(

[@SugarSpunRun]

Honestly I'm not sure how it's going to turn out. Mixing it all together helps everything coat evenly. I hope you enjoy them! :)

Could you eliminate the cinnamon so you just get the pure flavor of the pecans?

Sure! Enjoy!

Oven temp?

[@SugarSpunRun]

250F! It's always in the description 😊
