🍯 Air Fryer Candied Pecans Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 cups pecan halves

• 1 egg white

• 1 tbsp water

• ½ cup brown sugar (or granulated sugar)

• 1 tsp ground cinnamon

• ½ tsp salt

• Optional: pinch of cayenne for a sweet-spicy kick

Instructions:

1. Prepare the coating:

   • In a bowl, whisk the egg white and water until frothy.

   • Add the pecans and toss to coat evenly.

2. Add sugar and spice:

   • In a separate small bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

   • Sprinkle the mixture over the coated pecans and stir until evenly coated.

3. Air fry:

   • Preheat your air fryer to 300°F (150°C).

   • Line the basket with parchment paper or a silicone liner (poke a few holes for airflow).

   • Spread the pecans in a single layer.

   • Air fry for 8–10 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

   • Keep an eye on them the last couple of minutes to avoid burning.

4. Cool and enjoy:

   • Let the pecans cool completely on a sheet of parchment paper. They will crisp up as they cool.
