De-lic-ious. I had no other name for these. How good is a sugar coated nut! Of course I don’t eat sugar so I had to come up with a sugar-free version, and after many failures my friends, we are here! I now make these every week and they are beyond incredible. Recipes like this are a mountain for me. Sugar provides caramelisation and crunch to recipes, so when you take it out, it can be hard to replace those amazing properties even with the sugar free sweeteners I use. But alas, I’ve used a combination of egg and pure powdered monk fruit which creates that “sugar dusted candied” taste and texture. You can use any nut for this, but they may vary in cooking times, so watch carefully to ensure they don’t burn. Pecans are my preference for this because they taste so good when roasted and the coating goes into it’s natural grooves and omg it’s so good.
