Candied Pecans

Step 1

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium skillet over medium heat, stir together the brown sugar, water, cinnamon, and salt. Cook until the sugar dissolves and bubbles, about 1 minute. Add the pecans and cook, stirring, until coated, another 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 3

Spread the pecans in a single layer on the baking sheet and set aside to cool and crisp up.

Step 4

Stored in an airtight container at room temperature, candied pecans keep well for up to a week. Freeze them for longer storage.
