Low Carb Cinnamon Vanilla Pecans

Recipe #353714 | 45 min | 5 min prep | add private note

I pulled this recipe off the net in 2003 when I was initially started low carbing. It has since become my go to recipe for something that will always add that sweet crunch that will keep me on the straight and narrow. If you are really watching your carbs, vanilla, pure or imitation, does have sugar in it. You need to look for the sugar free variety which can get quite expensive. I find they make great toppings for a low sugar ice cream dessert.

Oh, my. This was sweet and crunchy and wonderful. I'm afraid I'm completely addicted. I plan to make a batch for the holidays to give as gifts to friends and family on restricted-sugar diets. The only change I noted was that I needed to bake 10 or 15 minutes longer but that may have been my own oven. Thanks for posting such a treat!!!
