In a small bowl, add the chopped pecans and top with 1 tablespoon of the flour blend; toss to coat the nuts; set aside.
*Alternatively, you can use 4 teaspoons ginger, 2-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon cloves. If you only have whole star of anise on hand, you can grind one star using a coffee grinder one and finish grinding it using a mortar and pestle.
**Use Featherweight brand for corn-free baking powder.
***If you prefer a soft top and not broken open, preheat the oven to 325⁰F as seen in the Southern Pecan Pound Cake Recipe.
