It's absolutely fabulous as well as addicting.  Her recipe said when spreading out to cool, separate with a fork so they don't clump together. The problem I'm finding these past couple years is the cost of pecans.  Even at Walmart, they are cost prohibitive in Minnesota.

If you fall into that category, try swapping an equal amount of walnuts, almonds, cashews, macadamia nuts or even pistachios for the pecans. <h3>Why are my candied pecans sticky? <\/h3>Candied pecans should be crisp and crunchy, perfect for gift giving, like these other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/top-food-gift-ideas\/\">food gift ideas<\/a>. If yours end up on the sticky side, they may have been exposed to too much humidity. Make sure to keep them in airtight containers after they are cooled. If they're sticky after they have baked, pop them back into the oven for 15 to 20 minutes more.<h3>How can I serve candied pecans?<\/h3>Just one taste of these candied pecans and we\u2019re sure you\u2019ll think of lots of things to put them on. We love them on top of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/homemade-vanilla-ice-cream\/\">homemade ice cream<\/a>, roasted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/ingredients\/vegetables\/potatoes\/sweet-potatoes\/\">sweet potatoes<\/a>, and sprinkled on top of salads, but honestly, we think the best way to enjoy them is by the handful!<h3>How should I store candied pecans?<\/h3>It\u2019s best to store candied pecans in an airtight container at room temperature. If you\u2019re adding them to a cookie tray or platter, it would be best to wrap them in an airtight bag so they stay as crisp as possible.<br><br><i>\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/author\/jschend\/\">James Schend<\/a>, Taste Recipes Deputy Culinary Editor<\/i>"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":309177,"name":"Recipes","slug":"recipes","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":309112,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Browse Taste Recipes recipes by course, cooking style, cuisine, ingredient, holiday and more categories to find a new family-favorite recipe.","parent":0,"count":51436,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","url":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/"},{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes &amp; Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
