Notes

  • Substitutions: If pecans aren’t your thing, you could just replace them with whatever your favorite nut is! I’ve made these with almonds many times before, also.
  • Serving idea: These make a yummy snack on their own, but are also make a delicious addition to a salad. 
  • Line your baking pan: for easier removal and clean up, line your pan with parchment paper.
  • How to store: place the cooled nuts in an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 1 week.
