Recipes

Classic Candied Pecans

Ingredients:

• 4 cups Azar Fancy Large Pecan Pieces
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ¼ cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 large egg white
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• Pinch of salt

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 300 °F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whisk egg white, water, and vanilla in a large bowl until frothy. Add pecan pieces and toss to coat evenly.
3. In a separate bowl, combine both sugars, cinnamon, and salt. Sprinkle over the pecans and stir until every piece is well covered.
4. Spread pecans in a single layer on the prepared sheet. Bake for 40–45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes, until the coating is crisp and golden.
5. Cool completely on the sheet — they will crisp further as they cool. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
