Ingredients
Crust
Filling
- ½ cup butter salted, melted
- 1 ¼ cups dark brown sugar
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 4 large eggs
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 3 cups pecan halves
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and generously spray a 9x13” baking dish with baking spray.
- Prepare the crust dough. In a large bowl, combine the browned butter, granulated sugar, and salt. Whisk.
- Slowly add the flour to the browned butter mixture, and stir well until the dough is evenly moist and crumbly.
- Pour the dough into the prepared baking and firmly press it into an even layer at the bottom of the dish.
- Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix well until smooth. Stir in the pecans.
- Remove the crust from the oven, and pour the filling mixture over it while it is still hot.
- Return the dish to the oven and continue to bake for 30-35 minutes until the top is golden brown, and the filling so longer wiggles in the pan.
- Allow the pecan pie bars to cool completely before cutting them into squares.
