Pecans are used in pies, cookies, brownies, pralines, and salads. One metric cup (250 ml) of pecan halves weighs around 109 grams or 3.84 ounces. When a recipe calls for pecans by the cup, packing tightly can add 20% or more over a loosely poured measure.

Pecan halves are irregular in shape, so they fill a cup with more air than denser ingredients. Weighing gives a consistent amount every time.
