    PECAN BARS

    I've made these twice and can't wait to make them again - I think they are yummy! They sure are easy!

    1 egg
    1/3 cup honey (I use agave nectar)
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    2/3 c WW pastry flour
    1/2 tsp baking powder
    1/2 c chopped pecans

    Preheat oven to 325F. Spray a 8x8 inch pan with spray.

    In a medium size bowl beat together egg and honey (or agave). Stir in vanilla.

    In a small bowl, blend flour and baking powder (it says to sift together, but this book is old and I don't think it's necessary). Stir into egg mixture and spread in prepared pan. Sprinkle with pecans and press into batter lightly. Bake in middle shelf of oven for 18-20 minutes.

    Cut into 12 bars and cool in pan.

    *Please note, using honey in this recipe will give you 16 tsp worth of honey,and the servings amount to 12, meaning this would give you over a tsp of honey in each bar. It's best to use agave nectar if you have it.
