Sugared Pecans

By Diana Rattray, About.com

This version of a recipe for sugar pecans is cooked in the slow cooker.

Ingredients:

  • 16 ounces pecan halves
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

Preparation:

Stir the pecans and butter in a 3 1/2- to 4-quart Crock Pot until combined. Add confectioners' sugar, stirring to coat. Cover and cook on high for 15 minutes. Turn to low and cook uncovered for about 2 hours, or until the nuts are covered with a glaze and are a little crispy.

Transfer to a bowl, combine spices and sift over nuts, tossing to distribute evenly. Cool pecans before serving.
