This makes a great condiment at holiday brunches. I made this for a Mother's Day get-together to serve with toast and french toast, and the mothers in my life enjoyed it enough to ask for it as a Christmas present. Serve with toast, rolls, biscuits, etc. Yummy on pancakes, waffles, and croissants!

Tips:

  • Choose fresh pecans: Fresh pecans will have a plump and full appearance. Avoid any pecans that are shriveled or have dark spots.
  • Toast the pecans before using: Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant. You can toast the pecans in the oven or in a skillet over medium heat.
  • Use unsalted butter: Unsalted butter will allow you to control the amount of salt in the recipe. If you use salted butter, you may want to reduce the amount of salt that you add to the recipe.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When you're toasting the pecans, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the pecans from toasting evenly.
  • Watch the pecans closely: Pecans can burn quickly, so it's important to watch them closely while they're toasting. Stir the pecans frequently to ensure that they toast evenly.
  • Let the pecans cool before storing: Once the pecans are toasted, let them cool completely before storing them. This will help to prevent the pecans from becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

These are just a few tips for making the perfect buttery sweet toasted pecans. With a little practice, you'll be able to make this delicious snack in no time. So next time you're looking for a sweet and crunchy snack, give these pecans a try. You won't be disappointed!
