Ingredients
- 3 cup Pecans
- 1/4 cup Balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup Coconut sugar divided in half
- Salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a prepared baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.In a small bowl, mix together the pecans, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, half of the coconut sugar, and a pinch of sea salt. I like to add some cayenne when I want a little kick!Stir to coat each pecan evenly. You'll want to make sure the pecans are fully coated with the balsamic and brown sugar glaze.Spread the pecans in a single layer on the prepared pan or sheet pan lined with parchment paper. This will help nuts roast evenly without clumping.Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 10- 15 minutes (When the pecans are in the oven, keep an eye on them, as they can burn quickly.), then carefully remove it to stir the pecans in the medium bowl with a rubber spatula. Coat the pecans with leftover coconut sugar and keep stirring until the pecans cool off and are evenly coated with all the ingredients. Once cooled, store them in an airtight container, preferably a mason jar with a lid, to ensure they stay crisp.
