Steps:

• For the spicy roasted pecans: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment and coat with cooking spray.
• In a small bowl, combine the sugar, cinnamon, salt, cayenne, ginger and egg white. Whisk until foamy. Fold in the pecans until fully incorporated.
• Transfer the pecans to the prepared baking sheet in an even layer. Bake until fragrant, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
• For the fruit salad: Cut a slit into the habanero. Combine the honey and orange juice in a small saucepot and add the habanero and cinnamon. Heat until just simmering, about 40 seconds. Let stand for 10 minutes, then remove the habanero.
• To serve: Toss the cantaloupe, grapes, kiwis and apples with the honey syrup, then coarsely crumble the pecans on top.

BUTTERMILK STRAWBERRY SKILLET CAKE WITH STRAWBERRY WHIPPED CREAM AND JERRY'S SUGARED PECANS

Steps:

• For the buttermilk strawberry skillet cake: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 10-inch cast-iron skillet and dust with flour.
• Beat the butter and 3/4 cup of the sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed. Beat in the vanilla and egg. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl until combined. With the mixer running, add about a third of the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, then add about half of the buttermilk. Continue adding the flour and buttermilk in this manner, ending with the flour, mixing just until the batter comes together.
• Pour the batter into the prepared skillet and smooth the top. Place the strawberries on top of the cake batter, pressing down gently. Sprinkle the remaining 2 teaspoons sugar over top. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• For the strawberry whipped cream: Place a mixing bowl and whisk attachment into the freezer 15 minutes prior to using.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the cold whisk attachment, whip the cream until soft peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the jam and vanilla and continue whipping until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes more. (If not using immediately, cover and refrigerate.)
• Serve the cake with the whipped cream and Jerry's Sugared Pecans.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a large baking sheet with sides with aluminum foil. Pour the melted butter onto the lined sheet.
• In a large bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon and egg whites. Add the pecan halves and toss until they are fully coated.
• Spread the pecans onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring the pecans every 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

PECAN PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix the brown sugar, granulated sugar and eggs until creamy. Add the chopped pecans, melted butter, milk, flour and vanilla extract and stir to combine. Pour the mixture into the pie shell. Arrange the pecan halves on top of the pie in a circular pattern.
• Bake the pie for 55 minutes. Check for doneness by shaking the pan slightly. The pie should be firm with only a slight jiggle in the center. It will set more as it cools. Serve topped with vanilla ice cream or with a dollop of whipped cream.

CRANBERRY PECAN BAKED BRIE

Steps:

• Put the cheese in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes to chill.
• Bring the cranberry juice and brown sugar to a boil in a small saucepan and add the cranberries. Turn off the heat and let the cranberries plump for about 10 minutes. Transfer them with a slotted spoon to a bowl, add the pecans, honey and cinnamon and mix together.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roll one of the sheets of puff pastry thinner with a rolling pin. Place the cheese on the center of the pastry. Top the cheese with the cranberry-nut mixture. Bring the edges of the pastry to the center and press together; brush the edges with the egg wash so they adhere.
• Cut three 1-inch-thick strips from the remaining puff pastry sheet. Cross the first 2 strips on top on the cheese so they intersect in the center like a ribbon wrapping a present. Seal the edges with egg wash. Bring the ends of the third strip of puff pastry up and over to create a bow shape, with the ends hanging down. Place in the center of the cheese and secure with egg wash. Brush the remaining pastry with egg wash.
• Bake until the pastry is light golden brown, tenting it if it begins to brown too much, about 40 minutes. Let rest briefly. Serve with crackers.

POTATOES WITH GARLIC BUTTER AND TOASTED PECANS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a rimmed baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
• Add the potatoes to a medium saucepan, cover them with cold water and add 1 tablespoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil, then simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife or fork, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and spread onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Using a heavy metal spatula or the bottom of a heavy glass, press each potato until it smashes. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bake until browned on top and bottom, 15 to 20 minutes.
• While the potatoes are baking, add the pecans to a small skillet over medium heat and cook until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the butter and once melted, add the garlic and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook until the garlic softens and starts to brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then stir in the thyme. Remove from the heat.
• Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish. Pour the garlic pecans over and toss lightly until coated. Sprinkle more fresh thyme on top. Serve immediately.
