- 2 cups raw pecan halves
- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Preheat the air fryer to 300 degrees.
In a medium bowl, add the egg whites and beat them.
Next, add the sugar and cinnamon and stir to combine.
Add the pecans and stir to coat.
Spray the air fryer basket with some nonstick cooking spray (be careful it is hot).
Spread the pecans in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook on 300 degrees for five minutes.
Shake basket a little and cook five more minutes at 300 degrees.
Spread the pecans out on a heat-safe counter on top of parchment paper and let them harden. It will take about 15 minutes.
You can cut the recipe in half if you only want one cup of candied pecans.
Keep the pecans in a sealed container after they harden to keep them fresh.
