Candied Pecans

I love any kind of candied nuts and these are especially delicious. The nutmeg and cinnamon in this recipe makes these pecans perfect for Christmas and fun to give as gifts.
Recipe from www.justputzing.com
What you'll need
1 Egg white
1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
1/4 cup Brown sugar
1/2 cup White sugar
2 tbsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Nutmeg
1 tsp Salt
4 - 5 cups Pecans

How to
1.  Preheat oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2.  In a medium bowl, whisk the egg white until foamy.

3.  Add the vanilla, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt and mix well. Add the pecans and mix well, making sure the pecans are well coated.

4.  Using a fork, trasfer the pecans to the baking sheet. Make sure the pecans are separated and not too clumped.

5.  Bake the pecans for about 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the pecans to cool completely. Stick pecans in the fridge to firm up, then enjoy!
