- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 ½ cups organic brown cane sugar
- 3 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions
- Combine your French bread, cranberries and pecans in a bowl. Pour PKN® Barista Pecanmilk over mixture. Cover and chill 1 hour.
- For the candied pecans, add your brown sugar, salt, spices, and water to a pan over medium heat. Stir until it starts to bubble & the sugar is dissolved, then add in your pecans and continue stirring until all of the liquid has evaporated and the nuts start to stick together.
- Transfer the candied nuts to a parchment paper lined baking tray in a flat, even layer and sprinkle with turbinado or raw cane sugar to garnish. Set aside to cool.
- Combine eggs, sugar, rum, and vanilla. Stir well. Add egg mixture to the chilled bread. Pour into a greased baking dish. Bake uncovered, 325 degrees for one hour.
- Top your bread pudding with the candied pecans, and plate it up topping with more maple syrup and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired! Cheers!
