Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the brown butter and sugar until well combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in the toasted pecans.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Serve and enjoy!
