1 teaspoon sugar |
3/4 teaspoon apple pie spice |
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt (kosher or sea salt) |
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract |

Directions:
1. Spread pecans in a single layer on a microwave-safe dish; microwave, uncovered, on HIGH 6-8 minutes until fragrant and lightly toasted, stopping once halfway through to stir.
2. Using oven mitts, remove from microwave.
3. While the nuts are toasting, mix 1 tablespoon sugar, apple pie spice, and salt together.
