I make these wonderful sweet nuts using pecans every year for Christmas. They are a true delight, especially if you are a lover of nuts. If pecans aren’t your forte, substitute walnuts. Happy Holidays!
Ingredients
- 2 egg whites
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pound pecan halves
- ½ cup butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Step 2
Beat egg whites until soft peaks begin to form. Add sugar, salt, and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form and turn glossy. Fold in nuts and coat well with the egg white mixture.
Step 3
Melt butter in a 9×13 inch baking pan by placing pan in the oven. Evenly spread coated nuts over melted butter in pan.
Step 4
Bake for 30 minutes, stirring and turning nuts about every 8 minutes, or until butter no longer remains in pan. Place hot nuts on foil and allow to cool. May be stored in an airtight container for several weeks!
