Ingredients
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour

- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease the wells well.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, salt, and baking powder. Stir to combine evenly.
Step 3
Add the chopped pecans to the dry ingredients and mix until the pecans are evenly distributed.
Step 4
In a separate small microwave-safe bowl, melt the unsalted butter. Allow it to cool slightly.
Step 5
In another bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla extract together. Slowly add in the melted butter while whisking continuously.
Step 6
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 7
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 9
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Pecan Pie Muffins!
