Cómo preparar Sugar Coated Pecans
- Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Continue to boil, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 240°F (115°C) on a candy thermometer (firm-ball stage).
- Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract (if using).
- Add the pecans to the saucepan and stir gently to coat them evenly with the sugar syrup.
- Spread the coated pecans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the pecans are golden brown and the sugar is nicely crystallized.
- Let the pecans cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking apart any that have clumped together. Store in an airtight container.
