Rich And Chewy Pecan Pie Muffins

This recipe came from trisha yearwood, who married garth brooks and wrote a cookbook called georgia cooking in an oklahoma kitchen with a forward by garth brooks himself! Gotta try these! :) be sure to use paper liners in the muffin tins and spray them with nonstick spray; otherwise, they will crumble when you peel off the liners. This recipe also makes great mini muffins; just shorten the baking time by 5 minutes. You might also try using oat flour instead of all purpose for a healthier muffin.

Steps

Preheat oven to 350f.
Place paper liners in 9 muffin cups and spray with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl , combine the pecans , sugar , flour , and wheat germ.
Make a well in the center of the mixture.
In a separate bowl , beat the eggs until foamy.
Add the melted butter and vanilla , stir to combine.
Pour the egg mixutre into the well in the dry ingredients , stirring just until moistened.
Spoon the batter into the cups , filling each two thirds full.
Bake the muffins 20 minutes , or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in a muffin.
Remove the muffins from the pans immediately and cool on wire racks.
Enjoy !.
