Toasted Pecan Butter image

This 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!

Time 35m

Yield 32

Number Of Ingredients 4

½ cup chopped pecans
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 cup butter at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F/165 degrees C.
  • Spread the 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.
  • Pulse the brown sugar, butter, and vanilla together in a food processor several times to thoroughly combine. Butter will be slightly fluffy. Sprinkle in the 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.

This pecan butter was a hit at my last party. I served it with apple slices and crackers and it was gone in no time. I will definitely be making this again.

I thought the butter was a bit too oily. I would recommend draining the pecans more thoroughly before blending them.

I found this recipe to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar by half.

Not bad! I thought the toasted pecans added a nice touch. Overall, it was a pretty standard pecan butter recipe.

This toasted pecan butter was a delightful culinary experience. The flavors were perfectly balanced, with a rich nutty flavor from the pecans and a touch of sweetness from the sugar. It was incredibly smooth and creamy, making it a joy to spread on t
