You can make candied pecans 2 different ways, I am vegan (loved the suggestion of feta cheese, I remember how I loved it before I changed from vegetarian to vegan) so I use Earth Balance which is a really good butter replacement - much better for you and even my husband loves it. Anyway, either use a slightly whipped egg or melted butter to coat your pecans then roll pecans in mix of sugar and cinnamon. I never measure anything so sorry for not giving measurements. I put the pecans on parchment paper to save cleaning my cookie sheet. Put them in pre-heated 350 oven, watch carefully, I think using butter or earth balance cooks quite fast. You can turn them if you would like but it really isn't necessary. I don't think it takes more than 5-10 mins. to cook the coating, let them cool completely and the ones you don't eat right away you can put on your salad. Enjoy, I think they are as good and probably better for you than the ones you get at fairs and carnivals. You can also use the same coating on walnuts - super yummy and almonds. Love them all!
