This pecan butter makes a great condiment at holiday brunches. I made this for a Mother's Day get-together to serve with toast and french toast, and the mothers in my life enjoyed it enough to ask for it as a Christmas present. Serve with toast, rolls, biscuits, etc. Yummy on pancakes, waffles, and croissants!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 32 servings

  • ½ cup chopped pecans

  • ¼ cup light brown sugar

  • 1 cup butter at room temperature

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  2. Spread pecans onto a baking sheet; toast in the preheated oven until they start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, about 15 minutes. Watch carefully as they bake, they burn quickly. Set aside to cool to room temperature.

  3. Pulse brown sugar, butter, and vanilla together in a food processor several times to thoroughly combine. Butter will be slightly fluffy. Sprinkle in cooled nuts and pulse several times to combine. For more finely ground pecans, pulse several more times. Serve immediately, or pack into a jar with a lid and refrigerate.
