How to make Candied Pecans
Step 1: Add the Sugars, Cinnamon, and salt to a bowl.
Step 2: Whisk together until combined.
Step 3: Add the Egg White, Water and Vanilla Extract to a separate bowl.
Step 4: Beat them until stiff peaks form.
Step 5: Add the pecans to the egg mixture.
Step 6: Gently toss to coat the pecans with the egg mixture.
Step 7: Add the Cinnamon/Sugar mixture to the bowl.
Step 8: Stir until the pecans are coated with the Cinnamon mixture.
Step 9: Line a Baking Sheet with a Silpat liner or aluminum foil. (Parchment paper is not ideal because the paper will shift around when you try to toss the pecans during the baking process.)
Step 10: Spread the pecans evenly on the Baking Sheet and bake the Candied Pecans in an oven preheated to 300 degrees for 45 minutes. Toss the pecans every 15 minutes to make sure they bake evenly.
