½ cup ghee or coconut oil, melted

½ cup coconut sugar

1/3 cup maple syrup

4 eggs

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and line an 8 x 8 baking pan with parchment paper.
• Stir together all ingredients for the crust in a large bowl. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan.
• Bake for 10 minutes until the edges are golden, then cool for 10 minutes.
• While the crust is cooking, whisk together ghee and coconut sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth and creamy.
• Remove from heat. Stir in maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
• In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk.
• Pour the heated filling mixture into the eggs slowly while continuously whisking so the eggs don’t cook.
• Stir in pecans, then pour the whole thing over the crust.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes until the filling is set.
• Cool for 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Slice into 16 squares, and serve.
