Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pecan halves or pieces (3 ounces halves)

Instructions

  • Arrange pecans in the air fryer rack inside the air fryer basket or oven-style air fryer.
  • Air fry at 300 degrees F for 3 to 9 minutes, depending on desired degree of roasting. (See notes for list of times.)

Notes

Roasting times:
  • Lightly roasted pecans: 3 minutes - When you want slightly crisp pecans and a hint of roasted flavor to recipes that are already going to bake in the oven such as cookies, banana bread and muffins.
  • Medium roasted pecans: 6 minutes - Perfect for adding to caramel corn, sprinkle on salads or oatmeal or coarsely chop to stir into pancake batter.
  • Fully roasted pecans: 8 to 9 minutes - When the pecan halves are the star! Deep roasted flavor and perfectly crisp. Chocolate-covered pecans, salted roasted pecans for snacking or added to trail mix.
