Praline Pecans




Praline Pecans

This recipe was given to me by a friend. She got it from a local Pecan Co.This is an easy recipe to make and they are good.
They were called Cinnamon Pecans. They are more like pralines to me.
Check out my other Cinnamon Pecans recipe if you like Cinnamon, they are really good. 


Ingredients:
1/4 cup Evaporated Milk
1 cup sugar
4 cups pecan halves
2 tablespoons water
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. cinnamon

Combine all ingredients except pecans
Place in medium saucepan, over medium heat, stirring until all sugar is dissolved.
Stir in pecans, continue to stir pecans slowly to keep from burning.

Cook until pecans are completely sugared with No Syrup Left in the saucepan. This takes about 10-15 minutes.They got difficult to stir when they were ready.
Quickly spread pecans on wax or parchment paper, separating them with 2 forks and then let them cool.
Using same pan you can repeat as often as desired. My friend makes 3-4 batches at a time.

  1. After a week of being bagged these pecans started to get soft. I'm not too crazy about the texture now. The taste is still good.
    These should be eaten right away. I might try putting them on a cookie sheet and continue cooking them in the oven like the cinnamon pecans. The pecan had a more cooked, crisp texture.
