Pecan Pie Bars
Pecan pie is arguably an all time classic. Although I usually associate it with Thanksgiving and Christmas, this is an all year treat for people who live in pecan growing areas (like Georgia!)
Our take on this classic is gluten free, vegan and WAY easier to make. Why? Because there is NO PIE CRUST INVOLVED. No pastry. No rolling pins. Same taste and texture, magically.

- 1 bag Dolled Up Desserts Monroe Blondie Baking Mix
- 1/2 cup Coconut Oil, melted.
- 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1/3 cup Mashed Sweet Potato
- 1 1/3 cup Chopped Pecans

Ingredients

|
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Prep mashed sweet potato by either baking or boiling peeled sweet potato.
- To a mixing bowl, combine oil, 1/4 cup maple syrup, cinnamon and potato until combined. Fold in baking mix with spatula until no dry pockets are present.
- In a side bowl, glaze pecans with brown sugar and maple syrup until well dispersed over all nuts.
- Spread blondie batter into the prepared baking sheet until even. Disperse sugared pecans all over the tops of the blondies. It should be a very thick layer.
- Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes in pan if you want to enjoy these warm. Run a knife around the edges of the pan first to loosen the bars, and then cut them out carefully.
- Serve bars with your favourite non-dairy ice cream or whipped cream.
