- Cut the english muffins into 2-3 cm pieces. Put in bowl then douse and toss in melted brown butter. Let it soak 1 minute
- Add sugar and cinnamon to the bread and toss well. Stir in pecans then spread the mixture on parchment paper baking sheet and bake for 25- 30 minutes
- Pull the pan out and stir/toss the mixture with a spatula at about 15 minutes. This helps caramelize the mixture, continue to do this periodically until mixture is dry and caramel light clusters
- Cool the cinnamon toast crunch before storing or using the recipe. Store in airtight container at room temperature, it will keep fresh for 1 week in fridge or 1 month in freezer.
