1 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Egg white | |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Cinnamon |
| ¼ | teaspoon | Salt |
| ⅓ | cup | Sugar |
| 4 | tablespoons | Melted butter |
| 2 | cups | Pecan halves; 1/2 pound |
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Butter a shallow 10"x15" jelly roll pan. Beat the egg white until stiff. Mix the cinnamon and salt into the sugar.
Keeping the beater running, addthe sugar mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Fold in the melted butter and pecans. Spread the pecan mixture in the prepared pan and bake for 15 mins.
Remove from the oven. Using a spatula, carefully flip the pecan mixture over, one small section at a time. When all the pecans have been turned over, return the pan to the oven. Bake an additional 15 mins. Watch them carefully--do not allow them to burn. Cool the pecans on a paper towel.
NOTE: Only 1 cup of pecans is used in the salad. Theother cup can be eaten as a snack or frozen in a zippered platic bag. These pecans also make a nice holiday gift.
