Nut Cups Recipe

  • Crust:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • Filling:
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 cup finely chopped pecans
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Combine flour, 3/4 cup coconut oil, and cream cheese together in a bowl; form into 36 balls. Press each ball into the cup of a miniature muffin tin, creating small crusts.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons coconut oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add pecans, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract; stir until filling is evenly combined. Fill each crust 3/4-full with filling.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until filling puffs up, about 12 minutes.
