   Sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and the star of the show – cinnamon into a mixing bowl. Then, add the white and brown sugar, creating a harmonious blend of flavors.

2. Add the Nutty Goodness:
   Stir in the pecans, letting their rich, buttery flavor infuse the mix. The more, the merrier for the nut lovers out there!

3. Create the Liquid Harmony:
   In a separate small bowl, combine the egg, oil, milk, and vanilla extract. Blend these liquid delights until they form a seamless harmony of textures and flavors.
