The rich, nutty flavor of pecans with coffee makes a delightful and wholesome blend!

Contrary to what some may think, coffee has some great nutritional benefits. It contains some essential nutrients but most importantly a large amount of antioxidants while pecans are full of vitamins, minerals, and phytosterols and they are the most antioxidant-rich nut.

Antioxidants, galore! Elevate your traditional coffee and start the morning off right! Play around with this recipe and drink it hot or chilled, add a dash of vanilla, substitute the sugar with maple syrup or stevia and adapt this to your diet and lifestyle.
