SUGAR AND SPICE PECANS 
1 egg white
1 tbsp. butter, melted
2 c. pecan halves
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
3/4 tsp. ground allspice

Beat egg white (room temperature) until stiff peaks form; fold in butter. Add pecans, tossing gently to coat well.

Spread pecans on baking sheet, and sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture. Bake at 300 degrees for 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes. Separate pecans with a fork. Let cool. Store in airtight container. Yields 2 cups.
