My Aunt Mary used to make these for the holidays and they were heavenly! Ingredients 1 large egg white 3 cups pecan halves 1/3 cup cinnamon & sugar For a cinnamon sugar mixture: use one tablespoon cinnamon to 1/4 cup sugar. Be sure to use good quality cinnamon. 2 teaspoons good vanilla 1/4 teaspoon salt Directions Preheat oven to 300 degrees. 1. Whisk the egg white in a cup. Pour the egg whites over the nuts, stirring until the nuts are coated with egg white. 2. In a small bowl, stir the cinnamon, vanilla, sugar, and salt together. Add the cinnamon sugar mixture to the nuts, a little a time, while stirring. 3. Spread the coated nuts on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes without stirring. Use a spatula to remove the nuts from the hot baking sheet immediately. Allow to cool thoroughly before storing in tightly closed container. Store in a cool place.

It is delicious! Here's another recipe for Pecans: Spiced Mixed Nuts Good for parties Ingredients: •2 tbsp. butter •1 c. pecan halves •1 c. whole almonds •1 c. dry-roasted unsalted peanuts •1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce •1 tsp. chili powder •1/2 tsp. garlic salt •1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper Preparation: Preheat the oven to 300°. Add butter to a 13- x 9- x 2-inch baking pan; set the pan in the oven to melt the butter. Remove the pan from the oven; add pecans, almonds, peanuts, and Worcestershire sauce to the melted butter. Gently stir until well mixed. Bake the nut mixture until it is toasted, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Remove the nuts from the oven and sprinkle the mixture evenly with chili powder, garlic salt, and cayenne pepper. Toss until well mixed. Transfer the warm nuts to a bowl and serve immediately, or let cool and store them at room temperature in an airtight container until ready to serve. Makes 3 cups of spiced mixed nuts. Enjoy!
