Slow Cooker Maple Glazed Pecans. The other day I happened to find an interesting recipe on Pinterest. It was Vegan in the Freezer’s Slow Cooker Maple Glazed Walnuts.
I loved the idea of cooking the nuts in the crock pot. Something I had never thought to try. I am not a fan of walnuts, so I made slow cooked nuts with pecans.
My recipe is loosely adapted from hers. These came out amazing! I didn’t even cook them that long, but the maple syrup almost caramelizes.
So good! I love the salty sweet combo. It reminded me of the flavors in kettle corn. The crock pot will seem like it’s going to be hard to clean.
Here is a trick. Once the nuts are done, fill the crock pot with soapy water and turn it back on for a few minutes. Then it will be super easy to clean.
