About Pecans
Fill the cup with halves without pressing them into gaps. If the recipe says “1 cup pecans, chopped”, measure the halves first, then chop; “1 cup chopped pecans” reverses that order.
Halves suit a pie topping, while smaller pieces distribute through cookie dough. Toast only if the recipe asks for it, and let the nuts cool before adding them to butter-based dough.
Tips for measuring Pecans
- Keep halves intact when measuring this conversion.
- Watch nuts closely while toasting; colour alone can be hard to judge.
Common mistakes
- Using the halves conversion for finely ground pecans.
