Time 25m

Yield 30 mini-muffins, 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Lightly grease (or coat with nonstick cooking spray) 3 miniature muffin pans.
  • In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, pecans, flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Make a well in the center of the mixture.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the butter, eggs and vanilla.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined.
  • Spoon the batter evenly into the miniature muffin pans, filling each compartment 3/4 full. (Fill any empty compartments halfway with water to prevent damage to the pan.)
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Makes about 30 muffins.
