MICROWAVE CANDIED PECANS RECIPE

Steps:

• Pour sugar into a 2-quart microwave-safe Pyrex glass batter bowl. Pour water over the sugar. DO NOT STIR. (I highly recommend you buy an inexpensive glass 2-quart batter bowl if you cook in a microwave very often.)
• Microwave on High for 5-7 minutes or until sugar mixture starts turning golden brown like a piece of butterscotch candy. DO NOT STIR. (Times vary with different MW ovens so watch carefully the first time or two until you figure out the exact time needed in your oven. It's easy to burn.) Use an instant-read thermometer to check the temperature if necessary. It should read 365-375˚F when ready. Tip the bowl to make the hot sugar mixture deep enough for the thermometer to read correctly.
• Add nuts but DO NOT STIR and MW on High for 30 seconds. NOW, Give the nuts a quick stir and finish with another 30 seconds on High.
• Quickly (and I do mean quickly) pour onto parchment paper, a silicone baking mat, or a well-greased cookie sheet. Use two forks to separate the hot nuts. Allow them to cool until you can touch them without burning your fingers.
• Use your fingers to break up the nuts. If caramel pulls in to thin thread-like strands when you try to break up the nuts, let it cool longer.

MICROWAVE CANDIED PECANS

Steps:

• Place butter in a 1 quart microwave-safe casserole dish. Microwave on High for 30-45 seconds or until melted. Stir in sugar, cinnamon, and cloves. Microwave on High for 1-2 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Stir in nuts until well coated. Microwave on High for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally and checking to make sure they aren't burning. Spread out on wax paper until cooled.

MICROWAVE GLAZED PECANS RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:

• In 1 1/2 quart casserole place butter. Microwave at high for one minute or until melted. Stir in brown sugar and cinnamon. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Mix well to combine butter and sugar. Add nuts and mix to coat. Microwave at high 3 to 4 minutes. Spread out onto wax paper and cool slightly. Serve warm or cold.

CARMELIZED PECANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Place butter in a microwavable bowl or measuring cup. Zap at half power unil the butter is melted. Add maple syrup. Alternatively, melt the butter in a pan on top of the stove and add the maple syrup.
• Add pecans and mix until pecans are well covered. Spoon out pecans onto a silpat covered (or not) baking tray. There will be syrup left, so add some more pecans, mix and spoon out. Continue until all syrup is used. This method allows you to use more pecans than called for in the recipe.
• Bake for 10 minutes, take them out of the oven and stir around a bit. Bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, until they have browned and the syrup has thickened to the consistency of caramel.
• Take them out of the oven, scoop the pecans out and place on a dry surface such as a kitchen counter or another baking tray. Try to separate the nuts from each other. Once completely cool, they can be stored in a closed container for weeks.
