Keto Candied Pecans Recipe
All the caramelized crunch you love, none of the sugar—these keto candied pecans are dangerously snackable.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup cane sugar replacement sweetener such as Lakanto Golden
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg white
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 12 ounces raw pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 300°F. Prepare a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper and set aside for now.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sweetener, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside for now.
- Add the egg white, a little water, and the vanilla to a large bowl. Whisk it until it’s frothy.
- Stir the pecans into egg mixture in the large bowl, being sure to stir them around well and get all the nuts coated.
- Add the cinnamon sweetener mixture to the large bowl, tossing the pecans well to make sure they are all fully coated.
- Spread the pecans on the baking sheet in a single layer. Place them in the oven.
- Bake for about 30-40 minutes, stirring after the first 15 minutes, then again after another 10 minutes, then every 5 minutes thereafter. When done, the pecans will no longer be wet with the egg white mixture, and they will be a deep golden brown color.
- Let cool on the baking sheet, then remove and store in a jar, airtight container, or zip top bag. For best quality, enjoy within 2-3 weeks.
