  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

  3. In a medium bowl, combine the pecan halves, maple syrup, melted butter, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt.
  4. Stir until the pecans are evenly coated.

  • Store any leftover candied pecans in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
