Ingredients
1 cup packed light brown sugar
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
⅔ cup butter softened
2 large eggs beaten
Instructions
Prepare the Oven and Muffin Tin
Begin by preheating the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour 18 mini muffin cups or line them with paper liners. Proper preparation of the pan will ensure that the muffins release cleanly after baking.
Combine the Dry Ingredients
In a medium bowl, mix the light brown sugar, flour, and chopped pecans thoroughly. Coating the pecans in the dry ingredients helps distribute the nuts evenly throughout the batter and prevents clumping.
