Ingredients

Scale

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the vanilla extract and eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the salt.
  5. Gradually add the flour to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chopped pecans.
  7. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  8. Drizzle the maple syrup over the top of the batter.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For an extra touch of flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon to the batter.
  • If you don’t have chopped pecans, you can use pecan halves and chop them yourself.
  • Ensure your butter is softened but not melted for the best texture.
