Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it nice and hot before baking.

2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the biscuits from sticking.

3. Cream the Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and sugar. Beat using an electric mixer or by hand until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.

4. Add Honey and Cinnamon: Add the honey and cinnamon to the butter-sugar mixture. Mix until well combined and smooth.

5. Incorporate the Egg: Crack the egg into the mixture and beat until fully incorporated and smooth.

6. Add the Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the biscuits tough.

7. Fold in Pecans: Gently fold the chopped pecans into the dough until evenly distributed.

8. Shape the Biscuits: Using a spoon or a small scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Space them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

9. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden around the edges.

10. Cool: Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

11. Serve: Enjoy your honey pecan biscuits warm or at room temperature. They make a delightful snack or a sweet addition to breakfast or tea time.
