These Pecan Pie Muffins are a delightful fusion of a muffin’s light texture and the rich flavors of a classic pecan pie. With a crispy top and gooey, buttery center, these treats are perfect for breakfast, dessert, or holiday gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2/3 cup unsalted butter, softened

Instructions

  • Preheat and Prepare Muffin Tin:

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease or line 12 standard muffin cups.

  • Mix the Dry Ingredients:

    • In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar, flour, and chopped pecans until evenly combined.

  • Add Wet Ingredients:

    • In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter with the eggs until smooth. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

  • Fill the Muffin Cups:

    • Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

  • Bake:

    • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and spring back lightly when touched.

  • Cool and Serve:

    • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. These muffins can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Garnish: For a festive touch, top each muffin with a whole pecan before baking.
