How to make tasty Caramel Pecan Bars
Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 ½ cups Otto's Naturals - Cassava Flour
- 1 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- ½ cup salted butter
Topping:
- 2 cups pecan halves
- 1 cup salted butter
- ¾ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- Flakey sea salt
- OPTIONAL: 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a standing mixer with the paddle attachment, mix all the crust ingredients together on a low speed for about 90-120 seconds.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking pan and sprinkle the pecans on evenly. Set aside for a moment.
- In a small sauce pot combine the butter and the brown sugar, cooking over medium heat, stir until it comes to a boil. Boil for one minute you will see it become homogenous and begin to rise up the sides of the pot.
- Pour the mixture over the nuts as evenly and quickly as you can. Sprinkle with flakey sea salt.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees in the center of the oven.
- Remove, and if you like chocolate and nuts, sprinkle with the chocolate chips at this time. (I often skip this step b/c these are rich and delicious even without.)
- Cool for a few hours, cut one strip out of the pan and cut into squares with a sharp knife. Then lift out the remaining plank, cut into strips and then into squares.
NOTE: You can get fancy and store these with baking paper in between the squares, but I just cover the glass pan I baked in and stick the whole thing in the refrigerator.
