Maple Pecan Brittle

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces pecan pieces roughly 2 cups
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup 100% pure maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup coconut palm sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Place pecans on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast pecans for 5 minutes.
  3. In a large resealable bag, pour the rest of ingredients. Add pecans and shake to thoroughly combine.
  4. Pour back onto baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
  5. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before you break apart in chunks.

Recipe Notes

Enjoy!


Store in an airtight container if they last that long.  This brittle is delicious.  And healthier than ordinary peanut or other nut brittle.  You don’t want to deprive yourself, especially this time of year.  Let me know how you like it!

    This looks wonderful! Just wondering, if you don’t have coconut palm sugar, could you substitute with honey or organic cane sugar? Thanks!

    Tried making this today. Did not turn out at all. Bubbled up in the oven and spread to the edges of the pan and beyond. Edges burned terribly. Followed the instructions to a “t”. Not sure what went wrong…

      Oh no Michelle, I am sorry to hear that. I know oven temperatures may vary, do you think it was overcooked?
