Ingredients

• 1 cup Chopped pecans
• 1 cup Light brown sugar
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Butter, melted
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin or line it with mini paper liners.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the chopped pecans, light brown sugar, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops of the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve the mini pecan muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
