Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, add pretzel pieces, chopped pecans, and brown sugar and mix together. Pour melted butter over ingredients and mix until well combined.
Spread pretzel mixture on the lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until bubbling. Set pan aside to fully cool before breaking into small pieces.
