Ingredients

36 servings

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
Ingredient note
Though high-fat foods can worsen reflux, this recipe has only a small amount of butter (~1 1/2 teaspoons per serving), making it likely fine for many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
½ cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
¼ tsp salt
1 cup pecans, finely chopped
Ingredient note
Fatty foods sit in the stomach longer and can bring on reflux. This recipe has only about 1 1/2 teaspoons of pecans per serving, which is likely fine for most people with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid pecans, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
