Equipment

  • oven
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ cups pecan halves
  • 3 tablespoon sugar-free honey or sugar-free maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼–½ teaspoon cayenne pepper adjust to your heat preference
  • salt Pinch

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 350 °F (175 °C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix the Pecans: In a large bowl, add the pecan halves. Drizzle the sugar-free honey over the nuts. Sprinkle in the cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to coat evenly.
  • Bake: Spread the coated pecans in a single layer on the lined baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes, watching closely so they don’t burn.
