For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the sugar mixture. Ensure the pecans are in a single layer in the air fryer basket for even cooking. Keep a close eye on the pecans during the last few minutes of air frying, as they can burn quickly. Store cooled pecans in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
