Need an easy pecan bake?
These easy pecan snack bars are a simple homemade treat with a buttery base, a lightly sweet center, and plenty of chopped pecans. The ingredient list is short, the steps are beginner-friendly, and the finished bars work for an afternoon snack, a bake sale, or a dessert tray.
Ingredients
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Steps
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease the pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a second bowl, whisk the cooled melted butter, egg, and vanilla until combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Stir just until no dry streaks remain, then fold in the chopped pecans.
- Spread the batter evenly in the pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the top is set and the edges are lightly golden.
- Let the bars cool completely before lifting them from the pan and cutting them into squares.
Tips for better pecan snack bars
- Chop the pecans into similar-sized pieces so every bar gets a good bite.
- Do not overmix once the flour is added. Stir just until combined for a softer texture.
- Cool the bars fully before slicing. This gives them time to set and makes cleaner cuts.
- For neat serving, use a sharp knife and wipe it between cuts.
- Keep leftovers covered so the bars stay ready for snacking.
