Candied Pecans

DifficultyBeginner

These make the perfect topping for your favourite salad(As shown in the picture: Rainbow Chard Salad with roasted beetroot) or as little snack. They are so simple to make and unlike traditional candied nuts, they are only lightly sweetened. They come together in under 20 minutes. These can be made with raw walnuts as well.
