Frequently Asked Questions

How do keto candied pecans differ from regular candied pecans?

Unlike regular candied pecans, which use sugar or corn syrup for sweetness, keto candied pecans use sugar substitutes like erythritol or stevia to keep them low in carbs and suitable for a ketogenic diet.

How should I store keto candied pecans?

To store keto candied pecans, place them in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crispy. Store the container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. For optimal freshness, consume them within two weeks. If you want to keep them longer, refrigerate or freeze them. When refrigerating, use a tightly sealed container to prevent them from absorbing moisture. If freezing, place them in a freezer-safe bag or container, and let them thaw at room temperature before enjoying. Proper storage ensures they retain their crunch and flavor.

How do I make keto candied pecans at home?

To make keto candied pecans at home, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, toss 1 cup of pecan halves with 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1/4 cup of erythritol or your preferred keto sweetener, and a pinch of cinnamon. Spread the pecans evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and fragrant. Allow the pecans to cool completely on the baking sheet; they will crisp up as they cool. Store in an airtight container to maintain their crunch and flavor.
