RUM-GLAZED SPICED PECANS




Source of Recipe


From Party Nuts! by Sally Sampson


List of Ingredients




2 cups pecans

For Spice Mix:

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1/4 teaspoon ground allspice

For Rum Glaze:

2 tablespoons dark rum

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon unsalted butter

Recipe



Lightly toast pecans on a baking sheet for 10-12 minutes in a 350-degree oven. Combine spice mix ingredients in a small bowl.

Place glaze ingredients in a medium-size saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add toasted nuts to glaze and cook for about 1 minute until pecans are covered and pan is nearly dry. Spoon the spice mix over nuts 1 tablespoon at a time until well-coated. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, keeping nuts separated. Let dry for 1 hour or up to overnight.

Makes 2 cups.
