Directions:
Preheat the oven to 250° F. Wisk one large egg white in a large bowl until foamy. Wisk in ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 1tsp. vanilla extract, 1 tsp. kosher salt, and ¾ tsp. pumpkin spice.

Stir the pecans into the brown sugar mixture until they are thoroughly coated.
Place the pecans in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper lightly sprayed with cooking spray.

Bake, stirring every 15 minutes until the pecans have browned and the coating has set and started to harden about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven, and cool completely on the baking sheet for about 30 minutes.

Store in an airtight container for up to five days.

Personal Notes:
Prime Time for Pecans
You Can buy them all year long, but fall is when pecans come into season across the South on stately trees in yards, in the wild, and at orchards. These native nuts are rich and healthy fats, protein, and vitamins, but their sweet, buttery flavor it's so wonderful that you probably don't need much convincing to enjoy them by the handful.
