JERRY'S SUGARED PECANS

I think making someone else's recipes is a wonderful way to remember them when they're no longer with us. Garth's brother Jerry loved my cooking, and he was a good cook himself. He always made me feel he truly appreciated the meals I made for him, and I loved him for it. He had a wonderful smile and a great spirit. Jerry brought these pecans out to the house one day, and I only stopped eating them when they were gone! The butter and sugar make them crunchy, sweet, and rich.

Yield makes 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
3 large egg whites
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 cups pecan halves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Line a large baking sheet with sides with aluminum foil. Pour the butter onto the lined sheet. In a large bowl, mix the egg whites, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the pecan halves and toss until they are fully coated. Spread the pecans onto the baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring the pecans every 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
  • These pecans will still be a bit wet and gooey when you take them out of the oven. As they cool on the baking sheet, they will get crunchy.
