Ingredients
>
Baking spray
>
1 cup all-purpose flour
>
1/2 cup granulated sugar
>
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, room temperature

1 large egg

1/4 cup maple syrup
>
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

Steps
1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat cups of a muffin pan with the baking spray. To a food processor, add the flour, granulated sugar, and butter. Pulse until dough holds together.
2
Divide dough into 12 balls, placing each in the center of a muffin cup. Using your fingers, press the dough into an even layer and halfway up sides.
3
In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, whisk the egg, maple syrup, brown sugar, and extract until smooth. Carefully divide mixture among dough cups. Divide the pecans among tartlets.
4
Bake until pastry is golden and center is set, 25–30 min. Let cool on a wire rack for 10 min. Run a paring knife around rim to release sides of tarts from pan.
