How to Make Toasted Butter Glazed Pecans

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup (113g) of unsalted butter.
  3. Add 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the melted butter. Stir to combine.
  4. Add 2 cups (100g) of pecan halves to the bowl and toss gently until all pecans are evenly coated with the butter and salt mixture.
  5. Spread the pecans in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant, stirring halfway through to ensure even toasting.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before storing. This allows the pecans to crisp up further.
  8. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
