Pecan Pie Muffins

1. 1

   This has floated around a while. I tweak it by toasting my pecans in a bit of butter before stirring them in. It adds to the just-baked pecan pie taste. The amount of vanilla is also adjustable. I'm thinking next time that I might add in a bit of the butter-flavored extract, too.

2. 2

   It's simple to put together. Mix dry ingredients (including pecans) in one bowl and stir together the eggs, butter and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients until just mixed.

3. 3

   Grease tin or cupcake papers and spoon in the batter (sometimes I use a mini-loaf tin to give as a gift). Top with with a few chopped pecans for extra sparkle in the presentation.

4. 4

   Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes and check. You can't let these dry out or they are not as good.
