- 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups pecan halves, chopped
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract and maple syrup.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the chopped pecans.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
Notes
- For an extra maple flavor, you can drizzle a little extra maple syrup over the bars once they are cooled.
- Ensure your butter is truly softened for the best texture in the crust.
- Chopping the pecans to a medium size will give you a nice crunch throughout the bar.
