Candied Pecans

Ingredients

• 2 cups pecan halves
• 1/2 cup butter
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

1. Spread pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 10 minutes. (Don't overbake; pecans burn easily.)
2. Melt butter and honey in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add pecans, stirring until coated. Cool completely.
3. Combine sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Remove pecans using a slotted spoon, and place in sugar mixture, tossing to coat.
