Keto Spiced Pecans

Spiced nuts, ah, the spice of life! Have you ever made spiced nuts before? Until this week neither had I. I knew them, I loved them, but I never made them myself. It took a few tries to get it just right, but this final recipe for keto spiced pecans is so scrumptious. 

These keto spiced pecans start raw, and cook with sweetener slowly in a slow cooker until they become the candied treats you’re familiar with, except they’re sugar-free!

However, due to what I believe is the lack of sugar content, I wouldn’t store them for long period in a jar, they don’t “keep” all that well when contained (moisture), so this is more of a make ’em and eat ’em in a couple days kind of treat.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup raw almonds
• 1 cup raw walnuts
• 1 cup raw pecans
• 2 egg whites
• 3 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup erythritol
• 1 cup “brown sugar” erythritol (ie. Swerve, Lakanto)

• 2 tbsp cinnamon
• ⅛ tsp nutmeg
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• ¼ tsp salt
• ⅓ cup water

Steps:

1. In a bowl with a hand mixer, whip egg whites and vanilla extract until frothy. Add almonds and toss—this will help everything stick.
2. Add the almonds into the slow cooker, then add the rest of the ingredients except the water, and toss. Cook for 3 hours on low, but keep an eye on it, and stir often.
3. Add water and mix, then cook an additional half-hour to hour. Remove, and spread out on parchment paper to cool. Once cooled and hardened, enjoy! Store in an air-tight container and consume within a week.
