Everything bagel roasted pecans {keto, paleo, Whole 30, low carb}

  • Pin It

If you have a container of "everything bagel seasoning" in your pantry, you will want to keep reading. This recipe for Everything Bagel Roasted Pecans takes just a few minutes and is the most addictive healthy snack I've ever made. And bonus: It's perfect for keto, paleo, Whole 30 and low carb diets.

"Everything" seasoning is just a combination of the seeds and toppings that typically grace an "everything" bagel: toasted sesame seeds, poppy seeds, nuggets of roasted garlic and toasted onion, and coarse salt. I always giggle at the name "everything bagel seasoning," since I grew up in New York and have been a fan of "everything" bagels for as long as I can remember.



Most spiced nuts contain sugar, both for flavor and to act as a binder to keep the spices attached to the nuts. I don't eat sugar, so I use lightly beaten egg white to coat the nuts and act as "glue" to bind the seasoning to the pecans. No sugar necessary at all. In fact, this recipe only includes three ingredients! Couldn't be easier. You could use this method with walnuts or almonds, but I like pecans because they get light and crunchy when they're toasted.

I can see these on your holiday buffet table, or packaged into little cellophane bags to give as gifts or stocking stuffers. If you make them, please let me know how you like them! They're disappearing fast in my house. (Scroll down for the recipe.)

Everything Bagel Roasted Pecans

prep time: 5 minscook time: 20 minstotal time: 25 mins
Savory spiced pecans with "everything bagel" seasoning, a mixture of sesame seeds, poppy seeds, toasted onion, roasted garlic and coarse salt. Three ingredients, 30 minutes - keto, Whole 30, paleo, low carb.

ingredients:


  • 4 cups pecans
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup "everything bagel" seasoning

instructions:


  1. Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Crack the egg and separate the yolk from the white. Put the egg white in a large bowl. (Save the yolk for another recipe.)
  3. With a fork, whip the egg white until frothy, about 30 seconds.
  4. Pour in the pecans and toss them around with a large spoon until all the nuts are coated with the egg white.
  5. Sprinkle on the "everything bagel" seasoning and toss to distribute evenly.
  6. Spread the pecans evenly on the lined baking sheet. Try to get them into as close to one layer as you can. If a few overlap, it's fine.
  7. Bake the pecans until they are dry and fragrant, about 20 minutes (but start checking after 15 minutes - you don't want them to burn).
  8. Let cool on the baking sheet. Transfer to an airtight container. Try not to eat them all at once.
