Time 1h10m

Yield 3 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 lbs pecan halves
1/3 cup butter, melted, plus
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons seasoning salt (or more to your preference and taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a single layer, place the pecans on a cookie sheet and bake for 30 minutes (I use 2 baking sheets to keep the pecans in single layer).
  • Once they have baked for 30 minutes, remove the pecans from the oven and add the 1/3 cup melted butter to the pecans, mixing well.
  • Return the pecans to the oven for another 10 minutes.
  • Remove from oven again and add the salt and the other 2 tablespoons of butter.
  • Stir the pecans well and return to the oven for another 10 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, mix the rosemary, cayenne and brown sugar.
  • Remove the pecans from the oven and toss the pecans lightly with the rosemary and sugar mixture, while they are still warm. (I used a large Ziploc bag and shake the mixtures together).
  • Serve warm.
