Crock Pot Candied Pecans

Grease a 6-quart or larger slow cooker and add the pecan halves.

In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites and vanilla extract until frothy. Pour over the pecans and stir to coat.

Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and cayenne pepper to the slow cooker. Stir well to combine.

Cover and cook on LOW for 3 hours, stirring every 20 minutes.

With 20 minutes remaining, stir in the water to help the sugar coating crystallize.

Spread pecans out on parchment paper to cool completely.

Store in an airtight container once fully cooled and dried.
