  5. Add the pecans and toss until the pecans are well coated. Add the sugar mixture and toss until all the pecans are well coated.
  6. Spread the pecans in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes, stirring after 20 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven and place the baking sheet on a wire rack to totally cool.
