I think you're referring to the Honey Chipotle Pecans posted by Natal years ago. It is fabulous! https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/2418740/honey-chipotle-pecans-per-request#n=43

Candied pecans from Once Upon a Chef

These ^ are excellent.

The honey chipotle Oly linked are also very, very good.

wow thank you Oly! When I glanced at the ingredients I was not sure, but reading all the posts singing high praise, I'm pretty sure this is it!

Now I have o find chipotle powder, though yaya said she made a change or two.

Thank you

Everyone does seem to like the Honey Chipotle nuts. I have a pepper sensitivity so I've never tried them. I make one without chipotle but I'm not home so I can't post it. It is really simple but it should come with a warning label - 'addictive'. Before Thanksgiving I make several batches to give as gifts but it is appalling how many we still manage to eat.

That sounds really good. I make these for my goat cheese and beet salads. But then I end up eating them plain. Love the addition of orange zest.

The Honey Chipotle Pecans are wonderful and loved by everyone I've shared them with. The heat of the chipotle is tamed a bit in the oven. Warning: they're very addictive.

I have one that uses maple syrup instead of honey...

These two are very good.

David Lebovitz’s version uses 10x sugar and I think it is excellent

Is Natal still around under a different name? She's had several.

I think she's Judi now

Now I have to find chipotle powder

I think most grocery stores carry it now. I buy mine online from The Spice House.

I'm a wimp when it comes to heat, so I cut the chipotle powder down by half and it's not too hot for me, but still has a bit of spice to it.

I've gotten recipes for spiced pecans from the Cooking Forum, and there is still another one not listed. This one is not candied, but I like it better:

Spicy toasted pecans

• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp coriander
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ginger
• 2 cups pecans

In a saucepan or deep frying pan, melt the butter on medium heat and add the salt, sugar, and spices. Stir to combine and then add the pecans and toss to coat the pecans evenly. You can continue to heat in the pan for about 10 minutes, or you can transfer them to a baking sheet and bake at 325° for about 10 minutes, stirring half way through to prevent scorching. Allow to cool before putting into a storage container, preferably a glass jar.

I make the ones that hhireno posted. Very easy and very good!

I saw the fresh bread and thought Trailrunner had returned. Does anyone know how she's doing?
