Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz Pecan Halves
  • 1 Large Egg White
  • 1 Tbsp Water
  • 1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • Grapeseed Oil Spray for Air Fryer

Instructions
 

  • Add the pecan halves to a bowl and fully coat with the egg white, water, and vanilla. Let this sit for a minute or two.
  • While this is sitting, combine the sugar, cinnamon, and salt into a small measuring cup and mix together.
  • Start slowly coating the pecans with the sugar mixture. It's best to add a little bit then stir them up and continue adding the sugar. Do this until they are fully coating with the sugar mixture.
  • Spray the basket of the air fryer or Ninja Foodi with grapeseed oil spray or you can also use parchment paper for the air fryer.
  • Add an even layer of pecans to the air fryer and air fry at 320*F for 8-10 minutes.
  • Continue to cook in batches until you have worked through all the pecans, this took 3 batches for us in the Ninja Foodi Air Fryer.

Notes

If you do not want to use 1 cup of sugar, you can do 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 Tbsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp of salt, then if you see that is not enough add more.
