Ingredients
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Zest of 1 orange
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 egg white
3 cups pecan halves
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries
Instructions
Heat oven to 325 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with foil.
In a small bowl, combine the sugar, orange zest, salt and cinnamon. Rub the mixture between your fingers to release the orange oil into the sugar.
In a large bowl, whisk egg white until frothy. Add the pecans and toss to coat. Add the sugar mixture and toss thoroughly. Spread the pecans in a single layer on prepared cookie sheet.
Bake until toasted and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. Immediately loosen the pecans and break apart. Stir in the cranberries. Cool completely; store in an airtight container.

About the recipe
Sweet and salty, and more scented than flavored with orange, these nuts are just right for the holidays.
