Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 cups raw pecans (300 grams)
- 3 tablespoon melted coconut oil or butter
- 3 tablespoon coconut sugar or brown sugar
- pinch sea salt
- 6 oz dark chocolate (2 dark chocolate bars)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300F.
- Add the pecans, melted coconut oil or butter, sugar and salt to a bowl and stir well until the pecanss are coated evenly.
- Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper and spread the pecans out evenly. Bake for 18-20 minutes until just toasted (you don't want them to taste burnt) and allow the pecans to cool while you melt the chocolate.
- In a microwave safe dish, microwave the chocolate on high for 30 second intervals, until the chocolate is melted.
- In batches, add the pecans to the melted chocolate, and coat the pecans evenly. Using a slotted spoon, place the pecans back on the baking sheet and place the tray in the freezer for 5 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden. Then enjoy!
Notes
- Store these pecans in the fridge so the chocolate doesn't melt.
