Crockpot Cajun Style Pecan Snacks

• 1 pound pecan halves
• 1/4 cup melted butter

• 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt

Mix all your spices together well in a small bowl.  Pour the melted butter into your crockpot, then add pecans, stirring to coat evenly with butter.  Then sprinkle your spice mixture evenly over the pecans, stirring as you sprinkle.

Cover the crockpot and turn on to the HIGH heat.  Let the pecans cook on HIGH for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring once.

Remove the cover from the crockpot and turn the heat down to LOW.  Cook uncovered for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally to make sure the pecans stay coated and evenly cook.

Cool the pecans on a rack covered with paper towels or a paper grocery bag.  They’re ready to serve as soon as they cool completely.
