Warm fall spices make these low-carb roasted Pumpkin Spice Pecans a sugar-free treat! Serve these party nuts as a low-carb snack, as a topping for yogurt and berries, or add to a salad.
Preheat oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt butter in a medium bowl in a microwave or in a small saucepan on the stovetop.
Add pecans, spices, salt and sweetener and stir to thoroughly combine.
Transfer to baking sheet, spread out and bake for 10 - 15 minutes, turning half way through. Watch carefully, as they will burn easily. They will continue to brown after you remove them from the oven. Let cool before serving.
