Sweet, Crunchy, and Perfectly Spiced: Cinnamon Maple Candied Pecans

If you need a snack that’s both delicious and versatile, Cinnamon Maple Candied Pecans are the perfect choice. They combine the richness of pecans with the warmth of cinnamon, the sweetness of maple syrup, and a touch of nutmeg. As a result, you get a caramelized, crunchy coating that’s simply irresistible. Whether you’re making a homemade gift, preparing for a gathering, or just craving something sweet and salty, this recipe has you covered.

Even better, these candied pecans are incredibly easy to make. Unlike store-bought versions full of preservatives, this homemade recipe delivers fresh, wholesome goodness. Plus, the blend of maple syrup and brown sugar creates a glossy glaze that hardens as the pecans cool. This makes them ideal for snacking, baking, or even topping salads and desserts.

Another great thing? You can easily customize the flavors. If you like a little heat, add cayenne pepper. Want extra cinnamon? Just sprinkle in more. You can even swap in walnuts or almonds for variety.

Not only do these Cinnamon Maple Candied Pecans taste amazing, but they also fill your kitchen with an irresistible aroma. Since they take just a few steps and simple ingredients, they’re perfect for parties, gifting, or anytime snacking.

So, why wait? In less than an hour, you’ll have a batch of crunchy, sweet perfection that will disappear fast.

Sweet, crunchy, and irresistibly spiced—these Cinnamon Maple Candied Pecans are the perfect snack or topping for salads, desserts, and more. A must-try treat! ✨

INGREDIENTS

4 cups Pecan Halves
6 tbsp Unsalted Butter
1/2 cup Pure Maple Syrup
1/2 cup Packed Brown Sugar
2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Ground Nutmeg
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Vanilla Extract

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat to prevent sticking.

2. Melt the Butter: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the Butter until fully liquefied.

3. Combine Sweeteners: Add Maple Syrup, Brown Sugar, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Salt to the skillet. Stir constantly until the Sugar dissolves, forming a smooth glaze (about 2 minutes).

4. Coat the Pecans: Add the Pecan Halves to the skillet and toss to coat them thoroughly in the glaze. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, stirring often, to toast the Pecans slightly and allow the glaze to thicken.

5. Cool and Harden: Transfer the coated Pecans onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Let them cool completely to allow the glaze to harden, about 30 minutes.

6. Serve or Store: Once cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
