I just finished making these spiced pecans and can I just tell you, they are incredible! I have made the sugared pecans and those are great but these take the grand prize! They are sweet from maple syrup, warm from pumpkin pie spice and a touch spicy from the chili powder! I am making them for a fall salad I will be making later. I am not sure these will last long enough to see it on the salad! Mr. MCYM walked in the kitchen took a couple popped them in his mouth and did a quick turn around for another handful! This is a recipe you are going to want to double!!! This would also be a great item to give as gifts during the holiday season!
