Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 cup cold butter cubed
Pecan Filling
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups corn syrup
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 cups chopped pecans
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 10 x 15″ jelly roll pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
-
In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles pea sized crumbs. Press into a prepared jelly roll pan. (You can also do this in a food processor.)
-
Bake the crust 20 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden brown.
-
For the pecan filling, whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Once whisked add the corn syrup, sugar, melted butter and vanilla. Stir in pecans.
-
Spread filling over the hot crust.
-
Bake 25-30 minutes or until filling is set. (You might want to place another pan under your bars in case some of the liquid spills over.)
-
Cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Serve & enjoy!
Notes
You can place a dollop of whipped cream on top if desired. To make homemade whipped cream: Take ¾ cup heavy whipping cream and 2-3 tablespoons powdered sugar, and place in a medium sized bowl. Using your hand mixer, whip until medium peaks form. There you have it, some yummy homemade whipped cream!
