Satisfy Every Holiday Craving Pecans

I don’t know about you, but I find that when I am having a craving it is usually not just for salt or sugar, but for salt and sugar. Nuts are my favorite snack treat since just a few will make me happy and they feel like they are better than a cookie or a chip. My friend Sara brought some pecans to a get together and they had Rosemary in them which I had never thought of before. So in a nod to her I added Rosemary to this recipe that includes, sweet, salt,and spicy.

1 cup of pecans (raw, not slated and roasted ones)
1 T. Melted butter
1 T. Brown sugar
1 T. White sugar
1/2 T. course Salt
1/4 t. Cayenne pepper
1/2 t. Cinnamon
1t. Rosemary

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a bowl pour butter and brown sugar over the pecans and mix well. Line a cookie sheet with foil and pour the pecans on and bake in oven for 5 mins.

While baking mix everything else back in the original bowl. After the pecans have cooked for five minutes take them out of the oven and pour them back in the bowl with the spice mix. Stir to coat and pour them back on the cookie sheet and place them in the oven to bake for another 8 mins.

Store in an airtight container.
