Spicy Glazed Pecans

By west757

My version of the famous spiced not for the holidays. I used Just Whites for a safer version than raw egg whites.

Package these in containers or gift bags to give out during the holidays. They can be used in salads or desserts or as an accompaniment with cocktails.

Ingredients

• 1 lb pecan halves
• 2 tsp Just Whites mixed with 2 tbs warm water

• 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 1/2 cup sugar
