30 Pecan Recipes for National Pecan Month

30 Pecan Recipes

April is National Pecan Month. Yep, you heard it here first! I have no idea how a nut gets its own month, but I’m happy for any reason to celebrate this savory kernel that is also a powerhouse of nutrition.

For this festive occasion, I have gathered 30 fabulous pecan recipes for your culinary inspiration — one for each day of the month. I know, it is the END of April, not the beginning. But time has a way of getting away from me, and I figure, pecans can really be enjoyed anytime, right??

I have loved pecans since I was a little girl. I remember picking the pecans that fell from the pecan trees on the campus where my dad worked. I would crack them open and eat them on the spot.

Growing up, my mom made Pecan Pie every Thanksgiving, and pecan pie is still one of my weaknesses.

My mom also turned me on to Butter Pecan Ice Cream. It used to be her favorite and it quickly became one of mine.

Nowadays I don’t enjoy pecans nearly enough, as my son has a tree nut allergy, and we don’t usually keep nuts in the house. But a girl can always dream, can’t she???

Did you know that the pecan tree is the only nut tree native to North America?? Me either.

Not only are they yummy, but pecans are packed with vitamins and minerals and antioxidants so feel free to enjoy them!

Here’s my round up of pecan recipes for you to peruse. Be sure to pin the image to one of your Pinterest boards so you can find it when you need it! And you can always share my recipes to Facebook or Twitter with the sharing buttons at the top and bottom of my posts.

Without further ado, I bring you…
