This is one of my favorite recipes to make when I need to make a snack really quick. I have made these nuts a couple of times and packaged them for Christmas gifts. They also make a good snack on a cold evening. I often make a double batch and use both pecans and walnuts. Salt can be varied depending on how salty you would like them to be. This recipe was originally from a really old Betty Crocker cookbook, but I varied it a little. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon egg white |
2 cups pecans or 2 cups walnuts |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon cinnamon |
1/2-1 teaspoon salt, to taste |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 300 degrees. 2. Mix sugar, salt and cinnamon. Set aside. 3. Place nuts in a bowl and pour the egg white over them. Stir until nuts are coated and sticky. 4. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture over nuts and stir until nuts are completely coated. 5. Spread on an ungreased baking sheet. 6. Bake 30 minutes. |
