Candied nuts make a great Christmas gift for neighbors, teachers or anyone who you want to bless with a sweet treat that says I was thinking of you. Make an extra batch for yourself but be careful not to eat them all at once.
Recipe
1 bag whole pecans (or almonds)
1 egg white
2 TBSP water
2 TBSP pure vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1TBSP cinnamon
Mix egg white and water together. Whisk until frothy. Add vanilla. Pour over nuts and mix together so each one is covered. Mix cinnamon and sugar together and pour over nuts covering each one. Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread nuts out evenly over tray. Bake in the oven of low heat for an hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Let cool. Package them up in a mason jar with a pretty bow or holiday fabric.
