Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Toasted Pecan Spread.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, spread your chopped pecans evenly on a baking sheet.
Step 3
Pop them into the oven and let them toast for about 15 minutes, keeping a watchful eye on them.
Step 4
You want them to turn golden brown and fill your kitchen with a delightful, nutty aroma—just be careful not to let them burn! Once they’re perfectly toasted, take them out and let them cool to room temperature.
Step 5
Next, grab your food processor and add in the brown sugar, softened butter, and a splash of vanilla extract.
Step 6
Pulse the mixture a few times until everything is well blended and has a light, fluffy texture.
Step 7
Now it’s time to introduce those cooled pecans! Toss them into the mix and pulse a few more times to combine.
Step 8
If you like your pecan butter a bit smoother, feel free to pulse a few extra times until you achieve your preferred consistency.
Step 9
You can enjoy your delicious toasted pecan butter right away, spreading it on warm toast or drizzling it over pancakes.
Step 10
If you want to save some for later, simply transfer it to a jar with a lid and pop it in the fridge.
Step 11
This nutty delight is sure to elevate your breakfast or snack time, so get ready to savor every bite!.
