Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp Salted butter
- 1/2 cup Light brown sugar
- 2 Tbsp All-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup Pecans, chopped
Instructions
- Combine Base: In a small bowl, combine the salted butter, light brown sugar, and all-purpose flour.
- Mix until Crumbly: Use a pastry fork or a pastry blender to work the butter into the sugar and flour until the mixture reaches a crumbly consistency.
- Add Nuts: Gently stir in the chopped pecans until they are evenly distributed.
- Apply: Sprinkle the mixture evenly over your pie filling.
- Bake: Follow the baking instructions for the specific pie recipe you are using (typically at 350°F until the pie is set).
Notes
Tammy's Tips: To get the best "crumb," make sure your butter is slightly chilled so it stays in little pieces rather than melting into the sugar while you mix!
