Instructions
Making Lazy Girl Pecan Pie Bars is a breeze with these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Mix Crust Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the melted butter, flour, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined and crumbly.
3. Press Crust: Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to create a crust layer.
4. Make the Filling: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, corn syrup, and vanilla extract until well blended.
5. Add Pecans: Fold in the chopped pecans into the filling mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
6. Pour Over Crust: Carefully pour the filling over the pre-baked crust, smoothing it out gently.
7. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly bubbly.
8. Cool Down: Once baked, let the bars cool in the dish for about 10-15 minutes. For a firmer texture, let them cool completely before cutting.
9. Slice: Cut the bars into squares or rectangles, as you prefer, using a sharp knife.
10. Serve: Enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
