How to Make Pecan Pie Bites?


These mini pecan pies are super simple to make. Of course, you can buy your pie crust which makes it easier or you can make your own crust.
First, make toasted pecans:
In a large skillet, melt butter, add the chopped pecans and toast for about 10 minutes until golden brown, stirring frequently
Gently roll out 2 pie crust on a floured surface with a floured rolling pin.
Using a round cookie or biscuit cutter approximately 3 inches in diameter, cut at least 24 rounds out
Carefully press each round into the mini-muffin pan. Use your fingers to round the ends into a pie crust.
Make the filling:
In a medium bowl, stir together the brown sugar, light corn syrup, melted butter and vanilla
Stir in the toasted pecans until well coated
Spoon about a tablespoon of filling into each crust, filling it about ¾ full, not to overfill the crusts
Bake for about 10-15 minutes or until the crust just start to brown
Remove from oven and let set for about 5 minutes before scooping another tablespoon of filling onto each bite.
