Vegan and Gluten-Free Tahini Pecan Pie Bars

these vegan and gluten-free tahini pecan pie bars are a festive treat that combines the rich flavors of creamy tahini, chopped pecans, and sweet maple syrup.

the almond-based crust provides a perfect crunchy base, complementing the luscious pecan filling with hints of cinnamon and vanilla.

whether you have dietary restrictions or simply enjoy plant-based desserts, these bars offer an incredibly delicious experience that’s both wholesome and indulgent!!

with a simple stovetop preparation for the filling and a quick bake in the oven, these bars are a convenient and irresistible option for the holidays :).

the magic in these vegan and gluten-free tahini pecan pie bars lies in the warm and nutty flavor of tahini.

this creamy and nutty sesame paste adds a unique depth and richness, elevating the overall taste.

tahini not only contributes a velvety texture to the bars but also imparts a distinctive, earthy note that pairs perfectly with the sweetness of maple syrup and the warmth of cinnamon.

its subtle yet robust presence creates a well-balanced and indulgent dessert, making these bars a celebration of plant-based goodness.

indulge in the goodness of tahini, and you’ll discover a flavor profile that takes these bars to a whole new level of deliciousness!

if you find yourself without tahini but still crave that silky texture, fear not—there are great alternatives for these vegan and gluten-free pecan pie bars.

almond butter, with its smooth and pourable nature, can seamlessly step in, offering a mild nuttiness that complements the pecans.

sunflower seed butter, known for its creaminess, brings a slightly different flavor profile but maintains the desired runny texture.

for a hint of sweetness, try cashew butter, which blends well with the other ingredients while adding a touch of natural sweetness.

while any of these alternatives will do, the important part is that the nut or seed butter is runny!

if yours is not runny, try adding about a tbsp or two of melted coconut oil to thin it out.

let’s talk about the deliciousness and ease of the crust in these vegan and gluten-free tahini pecan pie bars.

the almond flour, arrowroot starch, oat flour, melted vegan butter and maple syrup come together effortlessly, forming a somewhat crumbly yet cohesive base.

this uncomplicated crust not only offers a nutty flavor from the almond flour but also becomes a crunchy canvas for the pecan filling.

its simplicity makes it a breeze to prepare, allowing you to focus on savoring the deliciousness without the fuss.

as it bakes to golden perfection, the crust becomes the perfect canvas for the decadent pecan filling, creating a gorgeous blend of textures and tastes.
