Day 3: Green Chile Spiced Pecans


  • These Spiced Pecans are a huge hit every time I make them around the holidays. No one would ever guess how easy they are...until now, I guess my secret is out...oops! You can make them in large batches and they make a great gift! I found green chile powder at Whole Foods.
    Green Chile Spiced Pecans
    Ingredients:
    1 Egg White
    1 Tbsp Water
    1 pound Pecan Halves
    1/2 cup Sugar
    1/2 tsp Salt
    1 Tbsp Green Chile Powder
    1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
    Method:
    Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, whip together the egg white and water until frothy. In a separate bowl, mix together sugar, salt, green chile powder and cinnamon. Add pecans to egg whites, stir to coat the nuts evenly. Transfer the nuts to the spice mixture tossing until coated. Spread the nuts out on the prepared baking sheet. Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
