Maple Caramel Pecan Bars
My gluten-free and dairy-free maple caramel pecan bars are the ultimate fall dessert—rich, buttery, and made with the best ingredients from the FoodSocial Market. A crisp shortbread crust is layered with creamy maple nut butter and topped with a luscious dairy-free caramel made from pure maple syrup. Sweet, salty, and perfectly chewy, these bars are a must-try for holiday baking or cozy autumn gatherings.
