I had been assigned to bring toasted pecans to a meeting on Monday. I was having company on Sunday and needed a quick and easy recipe. This recipe turned out perfect. I did add some grated nutmeg. I found the consistency perfect. I had never cooked toasted pecans before.

I could not get this to work right. I used pecans (3 1/4 cups) and they began to burn at one hour so I turned the crock pot down to 'warm'. They never did develop a CRISP glaze. The glaze does have a nice flavor, not as sweet as I expected (just right).
