Coat the Bacon
Lay the bacon strips out on the prepared baking sheet. Evenly sprinkle the pecan-sugar mixture over the bacon strips, ensuring they are well coated.

Bake the Bacon
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the sugar has caramelized. Keep an eye on it to prevent burning.

Cool and Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Once cooled, the bacon will harden slightly. Serve as an appetizer or snack.
