Spicy Glazed Pecans

We received a batch of Spicy Glazed Pecans from the Grubers this past Christmas. Kathy shared the recipe and noted, “This make a small batch. I double the recipe and use a larger baking dish. I stir a couple of extra times if doubled and add an extra minute to cooking time the nuts need more roasting.”

Spicy Glazed Pecans

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon water

2 cups pecan halves 

  1. In a 9” glass baking dish that has been sprayed with Pam®, microwave 2 tablespoons butter or margarine on Full Power until just melted, about 1 minute.
  2. In a snall bowl mix together the brown sugar, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon; add water and mix.
  3. Add pecans to the 9” baking dish that contains the melted butter. Stir in spice-water mixture and mix until all pecans are well coated, about 2 minutes.
  4. Microwave spiced pecans on Full Power for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring twice during cooking time, until pecans are toasted and well glazed.
  5. Spoon/spread pecans in a single layer onto wax paper and let cool.
  6. Store in an air-tight container.
