My husband LOVES sugared pecans, and this weekend is his birthday, so I decided to try this recipe. I made it exactly to the recipe, waiting the 10 minutes for them to cool, and HE LOVES THEM. He can’t stop eating them. We’re going to let them cool another 5 minutes or so, but that’s only if any last that long! This was super easy and they taste amazing. Bonus – the house smells great also! 🙂

Love them!! So easy. I doubled the recipe but also had to double the time and raise the temp to 350 to get them crisp.
Kenneth Fletcher
Very easy and tasty! Next time I will limit last cook to 1 minute as the pecans tasted tad over done.
Jeffrey Edwards
Loved it! I’m lazy so I added the butter in with all the other ingredients and it turned out great and crunchy. Our new favorite recipe.

i added too much butter in basket. and also I added the foil then preheat and the dang foil got sucked up by heating element. SO i stopped air fryer then added butter and all ingrediants. It came out yummy but i know next time chill on the butter.

I added maple and brown sugar oatmeal mix in(like popcorn powdered flavors) and doubled the recipe. It was fabulous! My son has been breaking the bank buying the small packages of praline pecans at the grocery store. These are not only better tasting but also better on my budget! Thank you so much for sharing!

These are delicious and so easy! I’m glad it’s a small batch, because it will be hard to control myself. I used unsalted butter, so I added around 1/8 tsp salt. I also doubled the cinnamon.

I made them with almonds, and they didnt turn out that soft but they were still good! also I would use less butter

To the reviewer who states that these are too soft to his liking: you need to let the pecans sit for at least 10 minutes for them to crisp. I tried them right out of the air fryer, and yes they were soft. I came back 10 minutes later and they had all crisped up. My favorite way of making them now.

I tried making them once they aren’t that good they are a little too soft for my liking
