Honey Chipotle Pecans:

***These make ahead appetizers are an addictive combination of sweet and spicy. Recipe makes 2 cups of nuts and can be prepared up to a week ahead of time.

***Store in a sealed container.

Ingredients:

2 T. Honey

1-1/2 Tsp. Chipotle Powder

1 Tsp. Ground Cinnamon

2 Cups Pecan Halves

***The Bigger, The Better

2 T. Granulated Sugar

1 Tsp. Sea Salt

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

In a medium microwave safe mixing bowl, combine the honey, chipotle powder, and ground cinnamon. Warm through. (You can also do this on the stove over low heat.)

Stir nuts into warmed honey mixture; stir well to coat.

On a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spread honey-coated nuts in a single layer. Bake until toasted and fragrant, about 15 minutes.

Remove from oven and allow to cool only slightly-(no more than a minute or two, you want them to still be sticky.)

Combine the sugar and salt in a small bowl. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, put the hot nuts and add the sugar/salt mix tossing to combine. Spread nuts on cold waxed or parchment paper and let dry. It's best if they don't touch each other.

Serve or store covered until ready to serve.
