Candied Pecans

I stored these in a container to munch on all during the holiday season.  So easy and delicious.  I bought this container and use it for various holiday snacks as the label is a chalk marker surface. 

1 pound pecan halves
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon water
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 250 degrees.  

Line a rimed 18 x 13 sheet pan with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, vigorously whisk the egg white with water and vanilla until very frothy.

In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

Add pecans to egg white mixture and toss until evenly coated.

Pour sugar mixture over pecans and toss until evenly coated.

Pour coated pecans onto the prepared baking sheet and spread into an even layer.

Bake in preheated oven for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.  Allow cooling then store in an airtight container.
