Pecan-Pie Muffins are rich, moist muffins filled with crunchy pecans and sweet caramel-like flavors, reminiscent of classic pecan pie. Perfect for a cozy breakfast or indulgent snack.
Ingredients
- nonstick cooking spray
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/3 sticks butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place paper liners in 9 muffin cups and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine the pecans, sugar and flour. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Add the melted butter and stir to combine. Pour the egg mixture into the well in the dry ingredients, stirring until moistened.
- Spoon the batter into the cups, filling each almost full. Bake until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in a muffin, about 20 minutes.
