When you make these your house will smell awesome. I wish I
could bottle that scent and sell it – I’d make millions! The aroma of the
freshly roasted pecans with cinnamon spice and orange zest is just amazing!
They taste pretty great too! These make perfect holiday gifts as they are easy
to make but still taste wonderful! This makes about 1 lb of candied pecans.
- 2 oranges, zested and cut into slices
- 1 Tbsp almond milk
- 1 cup coconut sugar, or regular sugar, honey, other sweetener
- 1 Tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp all spice
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- 1 lb pecan halves
In a large pot, combine coconut oil, milk, oranges,
cinnamon, all spice and sugar. Bring to a boil and add in pecans. Cook over
medium heat for about 15 minutes or until sugar mixture has coated the pecans
and is almost absorbed. Spread pecan mixture on a cookie sheet lined with wax
paper and let cool and harden for about an hour or two. Break pecans apart and
store in a sealed container.
