Healthy Pecan Pie Bars
Pecan Pie is always a staple at our holiday get-togethers and most certainly a dessert that brings back childhood memories. But as y’all now, one of my favorite activities is taking my long-time favorite foods and adding a little Goodness With G twist. And these Healthy Pecan Pie Bars are no exception! They are one of the top recipes on my site for good reason, and I can't wait to hear what YOU think 🙂

Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper, and set aside.
- To a bowl, add all of the crust ingredients, and mix to combine completely.
- Pour crust into the lined baking dish, and use your fingers to press into an even layer.
- Bake crust for ~15 minutes, until slightly golden. When finished, set aside to cool.
- While cooling, make the pecan filling. Add maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla to a medium-sized sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring consistently.
- Add pecans, and cook for another 30 seconds or so.
- Pour the pecan mixture over the crust, and smooth into an even layer.
- Place back in the oven, and bake for 20 minutes.
- Allow to cool completely before cutting into 9 bars (the mixture will harden as it cools). You can even place the baking dish in the fridge (once cooled at room temp) prior to cutting to make slicing easier.
- Sprinkle bars with flaky sea salt, and serve with ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!
