Opinions Needed! Maple Pecan Pie Bars

[cajunchelle]

Has anyone tried this recipe?

It came out on a Use and Care Card, not sure what product though. I found it on Consultants Corner and was thinking about trying it for a show this weekend.

Maple Pecan Pie Bars
Ingredients:
6 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar, divided
2 eggs, divided
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup pecans, chopped
2/3 cup maple-flavored syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray Square Baker with vegetable oil using Kitchen Spritzer. Combine butter and 1/4 cup brown sugar in Classic Batter Bowl using Bamboo Spoon. Separate one egg using Egg Separator; reserve yolk. Beat egg white into butter mixture. Add flour, stirring until well blended and dough forms. Press dough onto bottom of Square Baker using lightly floured Baker's Roller(TM). Bake 15 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, chop pecans using Food Chopper. In Small Batter Bowl, whisk together syrup, reserved egg yolk and remaining egg, remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, vanilla and salt using Stainless Steel Whisk. Stir in pecans. Pour over hot crust; continue baking 13-15 minutes or until filling is set and crust is golden brown.

I haven't personally tried this recipe, but it looks delicious! I love maple and pecan together, so I might have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing the recipe and where you found it. Have you made it before? How did it turn out? I'm always looking for new recipes to try at my own shows.

Hello! I have actually made these Maple Pecan Pie Bars before and they were a huge hit with my customers. The recipe is from a Use and Care Card for the Square Baker, and it is definitely a crowd-pleaser. The crust is buttery and the filling has the perfect balance of sweetness from the maple syrup and crunch from the pecans. I highly recommend giving it a try for your show this weekend. Let me know how it turns out!
