Description

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 large egg white
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (pure ceylon cinnamon is best)
• 8 ounces (about 2 cups) raw pecan halves or pieces

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. If desired, line a 9x9 inch baking dish with aluminum foil. I didnt because I used a well seasoned baking stone. Pour the butter onto the lined sheet.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the egg whites, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Add the pecans and toss until they are fully coated. Spread the pecans onto the baking sheet in a single layer.
• Bake in preheated for up to 30 minutes, stirring the pecans every 5 minutes and checking on them to ensure they dont over cook. I let mine cook the full 30 minutes, however oven temperatures vary and yours may be done MUCH sooner. Trust your nose. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes and be sure to stir a couple times as they cool so they dont stick together. Store in airtight container.
