Passing down recipes in our family has always been a tradition, much like the generations of trees that stretch across our Midwest farm. Cinnamon sugar pecans bring back memories of holidays past, when the sweet, spiced aroma would fill Grandma’s kitchen, signaling the festive season. These delightful treats are perfect for nibbling while friends and family gather to share stories. Making them is a way to capture a bit of that warmth and make new memories.

These cinnamon sugar pecans add the perfect crunch to your holiday dessert table, but they are also wonderful served with a cheese board alongside sharp cheddar and creamy brie. Pair them with a bowl of warm, hearty soup or sprinkle them over a simple green salad for a touch of sweetness. They also make excellent homemade gifts, lovingly wrapped in mason jars and gifted with a bit of ribbon.
