How To Make pecan pie muffins

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place paper liners in 9 muffin cups and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Step 2
    In a large bowl, combine the pecans, sugar and flour. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
  • Step 3
    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.
  • Step 4
    Fold in the chopped caramels
  • Step 5
    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.. Cook Notes: This recipe also makes great mini-muffins; just shorten the baking time by 5 minute
