Roasted Pecans

0 comments

Roasted Pecans are the perfect holiday snack during the holidays!   This simple recipe uses only a few ingredients – butter, seasoned salt, Worcestershire sauce, and a dash of cayenne pepper.   These pecans are addictive and so delicious! 

I don’t know if any food represents the holidays to me like Roasted Pecans.  I know I can make them at other times of the year but for some reason I just never do.  I save them for a delicious holiday treat!   They are perfect served as an appetizer at any holiday party,  brunch, or dinner.

Roasted Pecans are also a beautiful teacher gift!   Pour the nuts into a Mason jar, wrap a little ribbon around the lid, and done! SO simple and SO delicious.

Make sure to make a double batch for whatever occasion – this simple snack is addictive but oh so good!!

Here’s how to make Roasted Pecans:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, add 1 lb of pecans, 1 stick of melted butter, 3-5 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce, 3 tsp of seasoned salt, and a dash of cayenne pepper (more if you like it spicier).
  • Spread the pecans out on a baking sheet and cook for 1 hour.
  • After an hour, let the tray sit on the counter until the pecans have totally cooled.
  • Store in an airtight container.
