Crunchy Glazed Pecans Recipes

CANDIED PECANS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Mix sugar, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl.
• Whisk egg white and water together in a separate bowl until frothy. Toss pecans in the egg white mixture. Mix sugar mixture into pecan mixture until pecans are evenly coated. Spread coated pecans onto a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until pecans are evenly browned, 1 hour.

BUTTER PECAN GLAZE

Steps:

• 1. Using a small sauce pan add the 1/2 stick butter with chopped pecans or pecan halves. Toast over medium high heat as butter melts, all the while stirring constantly about 5 minutes
• 2. Add the cream & corn syrup to the sauce pan.(Note I combined the cream & corn syrup into a one cup measure before adding it in.
• 3. Stir mixture to combine.
• 4. Add the brown sugar, stir until it is blended into wet ingredients. Bring to a rolling boil. Cook for 2 minutes. STIRRING CONSTANTLY. REMOVE FROM HEAT. Allow to cool just a bit then stir in butter flavored extract, and stir to blend. NOTE- A ROLLING BOIL IS WHEN YOU BRING TO A BOIL AND IT CONTINUES TO BOIL EVEN AS YOU STIR IT.
• 5. Cool until glaze thickens slightly, then carefully drizzle over top of cake and allow it to drizzle down sides of cake while glaze is still slightly warm. Note- If it hardens too much you will need to reheat, so work quickly.
