Description

These delightful Pecan Pie Muffins capture the classic flavors of pecan pie in a convenient muffin form. They’re sweet, nutty, and perfect for a snack or dessert!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 2 eggs, beaten

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease mini or regular muffin cups.
  • Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar, flour, and chopped pecans.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat together the softened butter and beaten eggs until well combined.
  • Combine Mixtures: Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients just until combined. Avoid over-mixing to keep the muffins tender.
  • Fill Muffin Cups: Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full.
  • Bake: Bake for 12-13 minutes for mini muffins or 15-17 minutes for regular size muffins, until golden brown.
  • Cool and Serve: Run a knife around the edge of each muffin to release it from the pan. Let them cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Grease the muffin cups well to ensure the muffins come out easily.
  • For a gooey pecan pie center, slightly under-bake the muffins.
  • Serve warm for the best flavor experience.
