Candied Pecans

Candied pecans are super easy to make and an amazing addition to any salad ... especially the strawberry spinach salad I posted earlier.

Sugar Coated Pecans Recipe

Candied Pecans

  • 1/4 to 1/2 C pecan halves
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 2 Tbsp water
Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Simmer until the syrupy liquid is completely dissolved (about 10 minutes). Be sure to pay attention, though! You do NOT want to burn the sugar!
