Glazed pecans are a type of candied nut. It’s typically a mixture of sugar, water, butter, and corn syrup. The mixture cooks on the stovetop until a caramel color and aroma form. Then the nuts are coated in the glaze. Spread on a baking sheet and either dry in the oven or at room temperature. Once cooled down, the nuts should have a shiny, hardened glaze.
