CINNAMON PECAN STREUSEL
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
- Reuse your mixing bowl, whisk the light brown sugar, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon and sea salt. Grate your cold butter. Start stirring with your spatula and finish with your hands until you have a crumble. Fold the chopped pecans.
- Pour half of your batter into your Flexipat®. Evenly spread with your spatula. Then, pour 3/4 of your streusel on top and finish with the remaining of your batter and streusel.
BAKE!
