Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 12 servings

  • 1 ½ teaspoons onion powder

  • 1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder

  • 1 ¼ teaspoons coarse kosher salt, divided

  • ¾ teaspoon curry powder

  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 3 cups pecan halves

  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line a large-rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

  2. Mix onion powder, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, curry powder, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.

  3. Heat honey, butter, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a saucepan over medium heat; stir pecans into the honey mixture. Remove saucepan from heat and add spice mixture. Toss to evenly coat pecans. Spread coated pecans in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
