Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 cup pecan halves, lightly toasted
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper if toasting pecans. Toast pecans for 5 to 7 minutes until fragrant, then set aside.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine brown sugar and maple syrup. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Add the toasted pecans to the saucepan and stir to coat evenly. Remove from heat and mix in cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract. Allow mixture to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, whip the softened butter using a hand mixer until light and fluffy.
- Spread the whipped butter evenly across a serving board, creating soft swirls with a spatula.
- Spoon the warm pecan praline mixture evenly over the butter.
- Sprinkle flaky sea salt over the top and serve immediately with bread or rolls.
Notes
- Ensure butter is fully softened for easy whipping and spreading.
- Do not overheat the sugar mixture to avoid grainy texture.
- Serve at room temperature for best flavor and texture.
