Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
In a medium saucepan, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, instant coffee granules, ground cinnamon, salt, and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir constantly until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture begins to simmer.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract.
Add the pecan halves to the saucepan and toss to coat them evenly with the coffee-cinnamon glaze.
Spread the glazed pecans in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pecans are fragrant and the glaze is mostly dry.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the pecans to cool completely. As they cool, the glaze will harden.
Once cooled, transfer the Cinnamon Coffee Pecans to an airtight container for storage or enjoy immediately!
