Heat your oven to 350 degrees.

Melt the butter and brown sugar in a bowl in the microwave or in a small pot.

Add the maple syrup, salt and cayenne. Stir to mix.

Add the pecans and stir till they are coated.

Pour the pecans on a parchment lined tray and place in the oven.

Bake for 10 - 12 mins, stirring half way through the cooking time.

Keep an eye on them so they dont burn.

Remove from oven and let them cool on the tray. When they are cool, break them up and store in a mason jar or tuperware till you are ready to top your salad with them!
