These roasted pecans taste just like they do at the fair. My ex-mother-in-law lives in the South and has lots of pecan trees. She sends me bags of shelled pecans every year for Christmas. Even though they use big roasters at fairs, these turn out just as great.

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg white
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 2.25 cups pecan halves
  • 0.5 cups white sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (105 degrees C). Lightly grease a rimmed baking pan.

  2. 2

    Combine egg white and water in a mixing bowl; beat until fluffy. Fold in pecans to coat evenly.

  3. 3

    Combine sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a shaker or cup with a lid. Dust pecans evenly with sugar mixture, then spread onto the prepared pan.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, until toasted and fragrant, about 1 hour. Cool pecans on the pan, then store in an airtight container.
