What can I say. These roasted pecans were so unbelievably smoky sweet caramely salty praline delicious that we ate them all in one sitting. Not particularly 'Health Yeah'... but I don't regret it one bit. If you happen to possess more self control than I, you can sprinkle these nuts on just about any dessert you can think of. Vanilla ice cream or baked apples would be right up there with the best flavour combinations ever. The pecans will, theoretically, keep in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks, although mine never made it past day one. You'll need 1 cup raw pecan nuts 2 tbsps pure maple syrup 2 tsp mesquite powder 1 tsp cinnamon 134 tsp salt Instructions
MYSTERIOUS MESQUITE What is Mesquite Powder? Mesquite powder is another of nature's fabulous sweeteners, ground from the pods of the mesquite plant, found in dry, arid areas of the Americas, Asia and Africa. It has a distinctive nutty, cinnamon, mocha, caramel flavour, while the hardwood of the mesquite plant has long been used by Native Americans to add a smoky sweetness to grilled/barbequed food. Health Benefits of Mesquite
Adding Mesquite to Your Diet: Mesquite powder is an excellent addition to smoothies, used alongside cacao, in cooked or raw desserts and baking, or stirred into food or drinks for extra flavor and nutrients.
