Brown Pie

Let’s start with the crust– the brown butter crust. Like a toasted nut crust, brown butter brings a whole new level of flavor to the bars as a whole.  It’s the same crust as my salted caramel apple pie bars, only doubled to make a larger batch and– of course– made with brown butter. All you’ll do is brown some butter on the stovetop, then mix it with sugar, vanilla, salt, and flour. The basic round-up of ingredients. Press it into the pan and pre-bake for a few minutes while you make the pecan pie topping.
