CINNAMON SUGARED PECANS

By


For some strange reason, I had an abudance of pecans in my freezer that I needed to use. Usually I make candied almonds, but pecans are also very good. In fact, I think I love every kind of nut! I’m warning you now though, you can’t eat just one of these babies and then set the bowl aside. Remember, you can use any kind of nut that your family likes. Almonds, walnuts, peanuts are also delicious. Heck…..anything is delicious when you coat it with cinnamon and sugar! I’ve posted other recipes for coating nuts, this is one I tried from the Betty Crocker Cookbook. This one is Easy and addictive.
