These cinnamon-spiced, perfectly sweet, crunchy, coated pecans will never get old. A lovely treat that has been around for ages. Not fussy, insanely easy, and quick to make. My mom used to make this treat in batches and packed them in cute jars. It’s her favourite gift to give to her friends, colleagues, and family. And she put a touchy note on each. I think I got that from my mom. And I don’t see why not? These easy cinnamon sugar pecans require just a few simple pantry ingredients. These are your next favourite holiday snack and giveaways. This is forever a keeper! If you haven’t tried making this, I think this is the perfect moment. The holiday is fast approaching and we are all looking forward to a homemade kind of gift.
