"Adapted from Pampered Chef's Season's Best. I love these pecans on a spinach salad with strawberries and feta... mmmmm! I've also been known to eat them all before they get on the salad!"

  1. How do I move this to my email to save it in a folder

  2. So, I've just made these and am waiting for them to cool. Question--is it really 2 teaspoons of butter, not 2 tablespoons? I've never had a recipe call for teaspoons of butter. We'll see what they taste like when they're cool. I'm trying to replicate Cheddar's glazed pecans that they put on their salad. Yum!

  3. I want to make a lot of these glazed pecans. If I want to make four times the amount that the recipe calls for, do I simply use four times the amount of sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt?

  1. So i was sitting around with my daughter and thinking to myself, boy am i hungry, low and behold i had a bag of left over pecans from the pie my mother in law made for thanks giving. So i jumped on Google and stumbled across this recipe. Checked my pantry and i had every thing i needed. So i put my baby in her high chair and we went to work whipping up this quick and easy glaze. Now i'm really bad in the kitchen and can only make a hand full of stuff but this was so easy i want to put it on all kinds of stuff (mostly nuts). I have been eating them as they slowly cool and they just keep getting better, no idea how long they are going to last on the counter while they set, hopefully my wife will get off work before i eat them all.

  2. Very easy to make very good it is easier to separate with your fingers before it completely cools. Never use wax paper it get stuck to the pecans.

  3. Delish..remember to seperate with fork while still hot so you do not end up with just a glob....

  4. This was fast and delicious!!! I don't see why spend 55 min.cooking them as per other recipes for glazed pecans!

  5. I made these yesterday tripling the recipe. They taste wonderful but the problem I have is they tend to stick together. I wanted to put them in a Christmas tin for a grab bag gift tonight but when I opened the tin they were one big chunk. What did I do wrong? I am going back to the TX glazed pecans but I really like your recipe better.

Hello, all! Thanks to all the great recipes and tips from the community here at Recipezaar, I think I'm finally getting this whole cooking thing down!FYI: When I review recipes, I take into account that I have to alter recipes so my BF will actually eat it - no mushrooms and no peppers! I realize this alters the taste slightly, but there's not much I can do about it if I don't want him to go on a hunger strike! I also try to use low fat and/or low cal alteratives. Gotta watch that waistline! :)I always try to give a kind, thoughtful review, even if the recipe didn't work out for me.<img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"><img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/duch*eSS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC11-Participant.jpg"><img src="http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/My-3-Chefs%20banners/my3chefs2008Small.jpg"><img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/duch*eSS13/RSC%20Banners/RSCParticipationBanner.jpg"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket">

FAQs

Why are my glazed pecans sticky? ›

Under-cooking the pecans is the likely cause of stickiness, but the risk is low when they're oven-baked. After the sugar-coated nuts have darkened and turned very fragrant, about 20 minutes in the oven, stir the pecans and separate any pieces that have stuck together. Continue to bake for an additional 20 minutes.

Why do you soak pecans before roasting? ›

Wet pecans allow the salt to stick easily to the nuts. Plus, soaking nuts helps neutralize enzyme inhibitors, which can harm your digestion, and reduce phytates, which decrease nutrient absorption. Just submerge your nuts in water while the oven is heating up and you'll be good to go.

Are glazed pecans good for you? ›

How can you tell if pecans are rancid? ›

They should have a firm, almost crunchy texture and a rich golden or amber color. On the flip side, bad pecans may show signs of spoilage, such as a rancid smell, a shriveled appearance, or a soft and rubbery texture. And if you're daring enough to taste some, it's likely a bit bitter and honestly, gross.

What causes stick tights on pecans? ›

Such "stick? tights" are caused by drought and heat stress in September and October. Pecans require water right up until the time of shuck split to reduce this problem. Nuts sprouting in the shuck before harvest (vivipary) are also reduced by late season water and/or stress reduction.
