Maple Bourbon Candy Pecans

This sweet and salty snack is scary addictive!

Besties! Your salad or yogurt bowl is about to have a MAJOR upgrade! Or at least mine did! These pecans are the perfect addition to any salad, yogurt bowl, oatmeal, or honestly I eat them as a snack too.

Five Simple ingredients:

Maple Syrup- You want to use the good stuff for this! Try to use the organic single ingredient maple syrup. Trust me I know it is expensive, but the best bang for your buck is at Costco.

Butter- Unsalted butter is best.

Bourbon- Use your favorite bourbon. I used some of the bourbon my dad got me as a housewarming gift aka a gift to himself whenever he comes over. I am not a huge bourbon drinker so I really have no recommendations on what is "best."

Spices- Use whatever spices you fancy, but I used paprika, cinnamon, and salt.

Pecans- I used unsalted pecan halves for this recipe. You can definitely use whole or chopped pecans.

Want to swap out the bourbon?

Not a fan of bourbon? I got you! Swap out for vanilla extract.
