Deliciously cinnamon-y pecan cupcakes are a wonderfully warming treat on a chilly winter day. I like to have mine smothered in Cream Cheese Frosting (page 95) with a cup of dandelion root coffee (you can find the recipe on my website, elanaspantry.com). Garnish these cupcakes with a few chopped pecans.
