Como fazer Simple Candied Pecans

Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 large egg white and 1 tablespoon of water until light and fluffy.
Add 2 cups of pecan halves to a large bowl. Pour the egg white mixture over the pecans and stir gently to coat evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine ¾ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
Pour the sugar mixture over the pecans and stir until all pecans are thoroughly coated.
Spread the pecans in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the pecans are golden brown and the sugar is caramelized.
Let the candied pecans cool completely on the baking sheet before serving or storing. Enjoy!
