The first time I ever had Cajun Pecans was a few years ago when my friend Jackie from Syrup and Biscuits sent me a lovely gift in the mail of her pecans in the dead of winter. They were so yummy. So when I saw this recipe for Crock Pot Roasted Cajun Pecans in Gooseberry Patch’s Slow Cooker to the Rescue, I KNEW we were going to give them a try!

They definitely don’t disappoint and they were so incredibly easy!!

I say Puh-Kahn…LOL. These would be dangerous in my house because I’d be munching constantly!! A little heat is good! Thanks!
Hi, just have a couple of questions. I’d like to double this and use a 5qt crock pot. Will the same cooking times work or should I cook covered longer than 15min?
Mike also said to switch to low heat after the initial 15mins on high, but the recipe doesn’t say that. Which is right?
Thanks!
Sorry about that Jim! Mikey was correct. I have fixed the recipe. When you uncover you flip it to low. Doubling in a 5 quart may take less time because even at double I am not sure it will be full enough to slow the cooking time. I would definitely be checking it occasionally when you stir and it may be quite toasted by 90 min mark.
Enjoy!
