If there is one thing I love the most about Christmas and the holiday season it is this family recipe. My grandma found it in Bon Appetit a long time ago and it has been a Christmas staple ever since. Even with the dozens of Christmas cookies, these cinnamon pecans are my favorite! There’s just something about the crunch of each bite and bright cinnamon flavor! I hope you enjoy this tasty treat and tuck the recipe away for safe keeping because once you’ve tried them the holidays won’t be the same without them!
What you’ll need:
- 1 egg white
- 2 t. cinnamon
- ½ C sugar
- ½ t. salt
- 3 C. pecans
Beat eggs until frothy. Mix all other ingredients minus pecans in a bowl. Add pecans to egg white and toss. Add mixture and toss well. Place on cookie sheet in a single layer and bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes. Loosen with spatula as soon as removed from oven.
