As we were perusing the aisles, (the "one finger" rule is extremely necessary when taking GLAAM into a very small store...or any store for that matter!) Maddie spotted some cinnamon-roasted pecans and asked if we could buy some. Now, the Amish may refrain from some things but a healthy mark-up on certain grocery items is not one of them. Perhaps these were slow-roasted over many months?
I asked Maddie if she would like to pick out some plain 'ole pecans and we would cinnamon-slow-roast those bad boys ourselves. She was delighted.
Maddie's Cinnamon-Roasted Pecans
1 cup pecans
1 egg white
1/2 cup sugar
1 t. salt
2 t. cinnamon
Beat egg white and mix into nuts. Combine other ingredients in separate bowl first and then pour over nuts. Stir thoroughly. Bake at 250 for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Try not to eat the entire batch in one sitting. We so did not do that. Nope.
