VARIATIONS
You can substitute just about any nut for pecans or combine different types of nuts. Almonds, cashews, and walnuts roast well, too.
For a dairy free version, simply substitute coconut oil in place of butter.
If you prefer a soy-free version, try using coconut aminos in place of soy sauce.
