Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter melted
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 24 mini muffin liners

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line 24 mini muffin cups with liners and lightly spritz with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium size mixing bowl use a whisk to sift together the brown sugar, flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Make a well in the center and add the melted butter, eggs and vanilla. Use a fork to blend together just until fully moistened.
  • Sprinkle 1/2 of the chopped pecans into the bottom of each mini muffin liner. Divide the batter evenly between each mini muffin cup.
  • Sprinkle the tops with the remaining 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes back clean.
  • Remove from the pan and cool on a cooling rack. Store at room temperature.
