Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, approximately 10-12 minutes. (12 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pecans lightly before crushing. This will enhance their nutty aroma and deepen their flavor.
If you prefer a gluten-free option, almond flour or a gluten-free all-purpose blend works beautifully as a substitute for the all-purpose flour.
To prevent the pecan crust from burning, monitor the fish closely during baking. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, tent the baking sheet loosely with aluminum foil.
Serve immediately with your choice of sauce and a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh green salad for a complete and balanced meal.
A simple lemon-butter sauce can be made by melting butter in a saucepan, then whisking in fresh lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and a grind of black pepper.

    This recipe was a hit! The pecan crust was perfectly crunchy and the trout was so moist.

    Next time I might try pan-frying the fish instead of baking it.
