This easy, not fussy Cinnamon Sugar Pecans are the perfect snack and appetizer. A sweet, crunchy treat that you can easily make in a heartbeat. Excellent for any parties, holidays, Thanksgiving, or for when you need a quick sweet fix. I tell you, these are addicting! One time I made a batch and the kids never turned their backs until it’s all gone! These candied pecans or almonds are the first to disappear in parties that’s why I always make a few batches and just store them in an airtight container. These are perfect for gift-giving, too. Just put a cute tag or bow for a personal touch. And you’ll never miss this because the house always smells amazing whenever you’ll make this! This recipe will never be left behind no matter what!
