Instructions

1. Whisk together the maple syrup and cinnamon until well combined. In a small skillet over medium-low heat, use a rubber spatula to combine the pecans and maple syrup mixture.
2. Continue to heat and stir occasionally to keep the pecans evenly coated and prevent burning. Once the syrup has turned to a solid granulated sugar and the pecans no longer stick together (about 15 minutes), these are done and should be removed from the heat immediately.
3. Allow the pecans to cool and enjoy as-is, over ice cream/yogurt, or in any of these recipes that call for candied pecans. They also make a great addition to holiday cookie tins.
