MAPLE AND BROWN SUGAR SPICED PECANS
This would make a great host/hostess gift at Thanksgiving time. The recipe is adapted from Alton Brown. I like these nuts because they are mildly seasoned.

Steps:
- Cover a large baking sheet with foil, wax paper or a silpat mat.
- In a small bowl, combine salt and pumpkin pie spice mix; set aside.
- In a large, nonstick skillet or cast iron skillet, toast pecans over medium heat, stirring frequently for about 4 to 5 minutes until they just start to brown and smell toasted. Watch them carefully. Don't let them brown too much.
- Add butter and allow it to melt. Stir pecans to coat the pecans in butter.
- Add the salt and pumpkin pie spice mix, stir until the spices are evenly distributed.
- Add the brown sugar, water and maple flavoring and stir until the pecans are evenly coated and the mixture is sticky, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.
- Pour the pecans on the prepared baking sheet, separate them with a fork and allow to cool before eating.
- Store in an airtight container.
