Low Carb Keto Cinnamon Vanilla Butter Glazed Pecans
When I was a youngster (and when I say young I'm talking about when I was in my 20's) I use to love going to the mall to buy a little bag of sugar coated cinnamon pecans that they sold at the kiosks.
From the time you walked within 200 feet of them, the smell would intoxicate you!
And of course they pulled you in with the free samples!
And I think I tried them ALL before finally realizing that I was probably going to have to create my own recipe!
So through a lot of testing (and tons of eating), I came up with the recipe you'll see below!
What I love most about this recipe is that not only do you taste the cinnamon and vanilla, but you can also taste the butter coating too!

Next add the Swerve and vanilla an make sure everything is fully coated. Cook the nuts for an additional 10 minutes or until the pecans appear to have a glaze over them.
