Ingredients
Crust ―
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup packed Wood's Maple Sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Filling —
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup Wood's Maple Syrup
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup packed light brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated Wood’s Maple Sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups coarsely chopped nuts
Directions
Crust —
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- Grease a 9”x 13” baking pan.
- Line with parchment paper so that the ends overhang by a couple of inches on the two short ends.
- To make the crust, whisk together flour, Wood’s Maple Sugar, and salt.
- Add butter and mix using a pastry blender or a fork until combined. The mixture will be crumbly but will hold together when pinched.
- Press the crust mixture evenly into a prepared pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Set aside.
Filling —
- Place eggs in a large bowl and beat lightly. Add maple syrup, butter, maple sugar, and salt, stirring until combined. Stir in nuts.
- Pour filling over partially baked crust.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the filling is set.
- Cool bars to room temperature in the pan.
- Using the overhanging parchment paper, lift the bars onto a cutting board and cut them into bars.
