Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Farhenheit.
- In a small bowl, combine the syrup, cinnamon and vanilla. Whisk well.
- Place the pecans into a large bowl.
- Pour the syrup mixture over the pecans and mix to combine.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and spread the pecans on the tray until they are all laying flat. Try not to overlap them.
- Bake for 6 minutes. Remove from oven, stir the pecans (making sure they are laying flat again) and bake for 2-3 more minutes. You want the maple syrup to be bubbling but not burnt.
- Leave to cool on the pan for 30 minutes and they will harden.

Notes
- It’s easy to burn nuts in the oven when roasting. So, make sure to not overcook the pecans and keep an eye on them for the last 1-2 minutes. However, you want the maple syrup to be bubbling a bit at the end as this is what candies them!
- Want to make the pecans a bit more addictive? Add a bit of sea salt for a salted, caramel-like twist!
- The pecans harden when cooling. Thus, make sure to let them cool fully on the pan so that you don’t miss out on the “crunchy” texture.
- Some of the maple syrup will be caramelized onto the pan and look as if it’s burning while cookies- this is normal.
- Make sure to use pure maple syrup and not a fake version like Aunt Jemima. Real maple syrup will give a candied flavor to the pecans. Likewise, the natural sugars in the sugars will evaporate slightly and harden onto the pecans.
- Using a commercial/man made maple syrup that has added oils and sugars will results in a sticky mess.
