Mini Pecan Pie Tarts

Everything you love about classic pecan pie—rich, gooey filling and toasted nuts—packed into crisp, buttery mini tart shells. These handheld delights are easy to make and perfect for holiday spreads, dessert tables, or sweet little moments any time of year.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Tart Shells:

1¼ cups all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

23 tablespoons ice water

For the Filling:

¾ cup chopped pecans

½ cup corn syrup

½ cup brown sugar

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin.

To make crust, mix flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until coarse crumbs form. Add water one tablespoon at a time until dough comes together.

Roll out dough and cut into small circles. Press into mini muffin cups to form shells.

In a bowl, combine all filling ingredients and stir well.

Spoon filling into each crust, about ¾ full.

Bake 20–25 minutes or until filling is set and crust is golden. Cool in pan before removing.
