Pecans With A Kick Crock Pot Recipes

Steps:

• Put the pecans in crock pot. Add the egg white and stir until the pecans are evenly coated.
• In a bowl, stir together the cinnamon, salt, cayenne, and Splenda. Pour the mixture over the pecans and stir until they're evenly coated.
• Cover the crock pot; set on low, and let it cook for 3 hours, stirring every hour or so.
• If the nuts aren't dry by the end of the 3 hours, uncover the crock pot, stir, and cook for another 30 minutes until dry.
• Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Stir together the dark brown sugar, cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Stir together the melted butter and vanilla extract in another small bowl.
• Toss the sweet potatoes with the cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Put 1 layer of the sweet potatoes on the bottom of a 6-quart slow cooker. Drizzle with a third of the butter mixture then sprinkle with a third of the brown sugar mixture. Repeat to make 2 more layers. (If there are not enough sweet potatoes to make a complete third layer, that is okay.)
• Cover the slow cooker and cook on low until the sweet potatoes are tender but not mushy, about 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, spread the pecans out on a baking sheet and bake until very golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool and finely chop.
• When the sweet potatoes are tender, gently stir in the orange juice. Transfer the potatoes to a shallow serving dish and allow to sit for 10 minutes (the sauce will thicken as it sits). Toss the potatoes in the sauce to coat, sprinkle with the chopped pecans and serve.
