Praline muffins with pecans and brown sugar glaze.

Cook Time: 18 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick)

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans

  • Glaze:
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Preparation:

Grease 14 to 16 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners. In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium heat until lightly browned; remove from heat and cool completely.

In a bowl, mix cooled melted butter with milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.

In a mixing bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients; pour in milk and butter mixture. Stir with a fork until dry ingredients are just moistened. Lightly blend in chopped pecans. Do not overmix.

Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups or liners, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake praline brown sugar pecan muffins at 375° for about 15 to 20 minutes, until nicely browned; transfer to a rack to cool for about 5 minutes.

Mix together glaze ingredients; drizzle over warm muffins. Let muffins stand until glaze has set.
