People in Texas love pecans, especially when they're involved in pies. Pecans, puh-cons, grow on trees and are quite common in the southern United States, and where I live, they're everywhere. I can hardly remember living in a house that wasn't some how adjacent to a pecan tree, and every fall we would collect them and have then taken to a professional sheller to be then frozen and used throughout the year.
I love pecans. I love pecan pie. So I made tiny ones.
Pecan Tassies (tarts)
1 cup Lyle's golden syrup
3 eggs beaten
2 tbsp butter melted
pinch salt
tsp vanilla
1 cup pecans chopped
filo dough (or shortcrust)
Cream butter eggs, salt, and vanilla. Mix in syrup. Take muffin tin and cut circles approximately 3 layers thick and place into each muffin tin, fill with pie filling to 3/4 full. Add chopped pecans on top. Place in oven at 350 F until fork comes out clean. Let set for 20 minutes.
