Maple And Black Pepper Pecans
- 1 Tbs. egg white (1/2 large egg white), lightly beaten
- Kosher salt
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 oz. (2 Tbs.) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- Coarsely ground black pepper
- 8 oz. (2 cups) pecan halves
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 325u0b0F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the egg white with 1 tsp. salt until very frothy, about 1 minute. Whisk in the maple syrup, butter, and 2 tsp. pepper; then stir in the pecans with a heatproof spatula.
- Spread the nuts on a rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring once or twice with the spatula, until they have absorbed all the glaze and are a shade darker, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool for about 5 minutes. Stir with the spatula and continue to cool until crisp, about 5 minutes more.
