Gooey Pecan Pie Bars

These Gooey Pecan Pie Bars with Shortbread Crust are the perfect take on classic pecan pie. They're made with a soft, buttery shortbread crust layered with a sweet, gooey, golden filling and finished with crunchy pecans.

Ingredients

Servings

For the shortbread crust

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup butter softened

For the pecan pie filling

  • 5 egg
  • 1 cup dark corn syrup
  • cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • tsp salt
  • cups pecans chopped

Instructions

For the shortbread crust

  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F.
  2. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment, or grease bottom and sides of pan.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine butter, flour and brown sugar together.
  4. Press mixture into the pan, bake for 12-15 minutes, then remove from oven and set aside.

For the pecan pie filling

  1. While crust is baking, blend eggs, corn syrup, sugar, vanilla and salt until well combined. I like to use an electric mixer to make it fast, but you can also easily do this by hand. Then, stir in pecans and pour pecan mixture over crust.
  2. Reduce the oven to 275° and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until filling is set.
  3. Allow the Pecan Pie Bars to cool completely, then cut into bars.
