Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons honey
3 cups pecan halves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250°F.
  • Line large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Mix onion powder, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, curry powder, and cayenne pepper in small bowl to blend.
  • Melt butter and honey with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add pecan halves and stir to coat; remove from heat.

  • Bake pecans until dry and toasted, about 40 minutes.
  • Cool completely.
  • Separate pecans (Can be made 1 week ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.).

Tips:

  • Choose the right pecans. Look for fresh, plump pecans with no signs of damage or mold.
  • Toast the pecans before candying them. This will enhance their flavor and make them more crispy.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan when making the candy coating. This will help to prevent the sugar from burning.
  • Stir the candy coating constantly. This will help to prevent the sugar from crystallizing and becoming grainy.
  • Cook the candy coating to the correct temperature. If the candy coating is not cooked to the correct temperature, it will not set properly.
  • Work quickly when dipping the pecans in the candy coating. The candy coating will harden quickly, so you need to work quickly to coat all of the pecans.
  • Spread the candied pecans out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to cool. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
  • Store the candied pecans in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Candied curried pecans are a delicious and versatile snack that can be enjoyed on their own or used as a topping for salads, yogurt, or ice cream. They are also a great gift for friends and family. With a little bit of planning and effort, you can easily make candied curried pecans at home. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
