Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons egg white (1 extra-large egg)
1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon chile powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups whole pecan halves (8 ounces)
1/2 teaspoon fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray a sheet pan with the cooking spray or brush it lightly with oil.
  • Place the egg white in a large bowl and whisk vigorously for 15 seconds, until light and frothy. Whisk in the brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, chile powder, cloves, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Add the pecans and mix well, until thoroughly coated. Pour the mixture, including any liquid, onto the prepared pan and spread in a single layer. Bake for 30 minutes, tossing twice with a metal spatula. Each time you toss the pecans, spread them out again in one layer. When they're done, sprinkle with fleur de sel and allow to cool completely; they will crisp as they cool. Serve at room temperature.

I love to add these pecans to salads of all kinds. Of course, they are pretty great just as they are! Feel free to adjust the seasoning to suit your individual taste. Also, walnuts and mixed nuts are really good fixed this way.
