With only 3 ingredients these are very simple to make. My goal is to always have a jar waiting. My favorite summer salad is spinach, berries, glazed nuts, feta cheese, and a basil balsamic vinaigrette. Since baby spinach comes washed and ready to be used it is quick and easy to make for lunch or a picnic. For dinner, I'll add grilled chicken.

Can I use another type of nut?

Yes. This method will work to glaze any type of nut!

How about other flavors?

I like to add a little cinnamon and vanilla when I glaze almonds. Maple extract is a nice flavor addition or you can add a drop of molasses to give these a brown sugar flavor. A drop or two of molasses adds a very negligible amount of carbs and a great flavor.

How to Store Keto Glazed Pecans

These are fine at room temperature for at least a month or two. Just keep them in an airtight jar or plastic container. For longer storage refrigerate.

These obviously don't have high fructosecorn syrup. I recycledan all fruit jelly jar for an occasion like this. I love mason jars and other glass jars of unique shapes or sizes. I have quite a collection in my pantry and basem*nt and they come in handy rather often. I love making individual desserts in little mason jars. They are easy to serve and portable to bring places. Just pop on the lid and you are ready to go.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ¼ cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or see alternativesin recipe notes)
  • 1 cup pecan halves

Instructions

  • Add the butter and sweetener to a medium saucepan. Heat on medium until melted. Add the pecans and cook for about 5-8 minutes until the syrup begins turning brown and the pecans smell toasted. Remove from the heat. Stir every 5 minutes as they cool. The syrup will continue to thicken. Once they are well coated and room temperature transfer to a waxed paper lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until the coating is hard.

Notes

Notes on Sweeteners:

I use my ownblend of xylitol, erythritol, and steviain my recipes. This is twice as sweet as sugar. It is comparable toTrim Healthy Mama Gentle SweetandTruvia.

To sub inSwerve or Lakanto Monk Fruit use 1.5 times the amount of sweetener called for.

To sub inPyureorTrim Healthy Mama Super Sweetuse half the amount of sweetener called for.

Substitutions will work in most recipes. They may not work in candies, such as caramel.

    I made these for the first time this afternoon and they are thoroughly cooled; it’s been more than 3 hours, but they are still soft and chewy. Can I still do something to get them crunchy? I wanted to serve them at a tea tomorrow.

      You may need to cook them longer. You can spread on a baking sheet on parchment and bake in the oven. Try 400 for 10-15 minutes. Check often to make sure they don't burn. Let them cool and they should harden up.

      I think so but can't promise it. Try heating a tiny amount of brown sugar swerve to make sure it will melt.
