I love baking and I love breakfast! And, I love dessert. If you’ve ever had a pecan praline that’s exactly what these muffins taste like. This is a play off that Southern treat. It’s like a praline has been melted into a muffin! They are dense and buttery, rich but not overly sweet.
I made mini-muffins and rolled them in sugar. This is two bites of pure bliss!
These are a lot like my Pecan Pie Muffins.
Praline Muffins
- There is no baking powder or baking soda, in these muffins. The eggs are the leavening agent.
- I added salt for taste. You can omit it if you prefer.
- You can use salted or unsalted butter. I always use salted, but it is a personal taste preference.
- This is a very thick batter.
- I used granulated sugar to roll the cooked muffin. You can omit it. As well, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or pumpkin spice to the sugar.
