Chewy Maple Nut Bars
The combination of sweet brown sugar, crunchy pecans, and pure maple syrup in these chewy maple nut bars is tough to beat.

For those with nut allergies, we substitute pretzels for the pecans. It doesn’t taste the same but is very good.
Thanks for sharing
This recipe sounds like it would be right up my alley except for the need for 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. I don’t use heavy cream, at all. Do you have any recommendations as a substitute? thank you!
Making mine with evaporated milk
Can I substitute almonds for the pecans? I really don’t like pecans, at all, but LOVE almonds.
Good stuff
Unless one has an allergy to dairy, heavy cream is among the good fats along, with real butter, coconut and avocado oil, all of which has been recommended by good nutritionists and dietary information, they will not put on wt but help the body to burn fat rather than protein for fuel, they have nothing to do with cholesterol and long agound found that cholesterol numbers do not matter, it is the particle size, the average liped panel doctors do is not accurate, I use at least 1/4 c. pure organic whipping cream daily , lots of real butter, and trim, 88 and look like 50, so I am told. ddumbra R.N.

That’s great!
Made them today with Half and Half instead of Heavy Cream. Came out fine but I don’t taste any maple and barely any pecans. They are more like Toffee Nut Bars to me. Definitely not like Pecan Pie.
When completed the base was somewhat crumbling It did not stay together- any thought on how to improve this?
How to store chewy maple nut bars. Can they be frozen?
