just in time for thanksgiving, a super simple + yummy recipe for pecan pie muffins. i found this recipe last year on the girl who ate everything’s blog so i made them for thanksgiving. and they did not disappoint!
i’m really a salty foods kind of girl, but these pecan pie muffins were something special. i don’t know what it was about them, but they kept me coming back for more.
and since i’ve gone gluten-free, it was so easy to make these muffins gluten-free. i just used gluten-free all-purpose flour and they came out great.
if you are looking for something really quick + easy for your thanksgiving celebration you must try these. i am going to make them with my boys this week and bring them over to my parent’s house for thanksgiving again this year. i think i’ve started a new tradition…
enjoy!
