Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups pecan halves
  • 1 large egg white
  • 2 tablespoons sugar substitute
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the egg white until it becomes slightly frothy.
  3. Place the pecan halves in a mixing bowl and coat them with the whisked egg white.
  4. Sprinkle the sugar substitute, cinnamon, and vanilla extract over the pecans and toss to coat evenly.
Baking
  1. Spread the pecans in a single layer on the lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 8 minutes for even cooking.
  2. Let the baked pecans cool completely to achieve the candy-like coating and full cinnamon flavor.

Notes

When selecting pecans, choose fresh ones with a rich, nutty aroma. Store pecans in an airtight container in the refrigerator for optimal freshness. You can substitute walnuts if desired, or use an egg substitute for a vegan option.
