How to Make Sugar Spice Pecans
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- In a large bowl, whisk 2 large egg whites until frothy.
- Add 4 cups pecan halves to the egg whites and stir gently until evenly coated.
- Gradually sprinkle the sugar spice mixture over the pecans, tossing gently with a spoon until the nuts are thoroughly and evenly coated.
- Spread the coated pecans in a single layer on two lightly greased baking sheets. Bake in a preheated 325°F (160°C) oven for 30 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, or until the coating is crisp and the pecans are fragrant.
- Let the Sugar Spice Pecans cool completely on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container. Enjoy!
