Rum Glazed Roasted Pecans

Rum Glazed Roasted Pecans

It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal!  I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation.  It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a recipe from and in turn someone else will be assigned your blog.  All you have to do is choose a recipe, make it and blog about it on the specified date.  The only rule is to keep it a secret!  If you are interested in learning more, or want to join the club, please visit the Secret recipe club website.
The blog I got assigned this month is Join Us, Pull up a Chair written by the very talented Heather.  She’s been blogging for a looong time, so her blog is full of amazing recipes.  I chose to make her Rum glazed roasted Pecans because… I LOVE rum!  It is my absolute favourite liquor and it always reminds me of the wonderful time I had in Cuba years ago.  So, when I saw these pecans, I simply could not resist!  I adapted her original recipe following her comments and suggestions – I used only brown sugar and dark rum instead of white rum, for a stronger flavour – and loved it.  It’s a very simple recipe and the final result is amazing!  You won’t be able to stop at one!
Thank you so much for sharing such a fantastic recipe Heather!  Please, make sure you drop by Heather’s blog and check out her beautiful site!

Rum Glazed Roasted Pecans

Rum Glazed Roasted Pecans - oh so good!

Course Snack
Cuisine American
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 2 cups
Author Recipe adapted from Join Us, Pull up a Chair

Ingredients

  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 4 tbsp rum
  • 2 cups whole pecans

Instructions

  1. In a medium sauce pan, heat the sugar, salt and 2 tablespoons of rum over medium-high heat until it boils. At this point, stir the mixture until the syrup starts to turn clear and turn the heat down to medium-low so the syrup doesn’t burn.
  2. Pour in the pecans. Once the pecans are coated, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of rum. The syrup will thin out at this point. Stir continuously until the syrup returns to a boil.
  3. Spoon the pecans onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper.
  4. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 180°C – 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes until the bubbling stops and the syrup appears hard.
  5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on a baking sheet.
  6. Break apart and store in an air tight container or glass jar.

    I love candied nuts in salad or oatmeal (or by the handful). These look so good I may have to try making them the next time I have pecans around. Great SRC post.

    Manu Another hit ! This time pecans. As a person you has stopped eating meat (including chicken) , i always enjoy powerful flavors and textures from plant kingdom.. image placing a few of these babies on some butter pecan vanilla ice cream ?

    I recently found this kind of wok/ skillet . I think it would work wonders for this kind of garnish.
