Scale
- 1 cup pecan halves
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium skillet, toast the pecans over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
- Add the maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt to the skillet with the pecans. Stir well to combine.

- Once completely cooled, break apart any clumps and enjoy!
Notes
- Keep an eye on the syrup as it cooks; if it starts to burn, lower the heat.
