How to Make Low Carb Pecan Sandie Bars in a Slow Cooker
Cris here.
I am so excited to share this sweet treat for my low carb folks. These buttery sweet cookie bars are a nice little dessert for when you are trying to stay on track while others are passing around the cookie tray.
If you aren’t low carb, you might want to skip this one or you may love it. The votes in my house are mixed. I love them (but I don’t eat sugar). Miss Add says they are good. And, Mikey is not the biggest fan.
Notes on This Recipe
- These bars were inspired by the Butter Pecan Cookies in one of my very favorite low carb cookbooks: Everyday Ketogenic Kitchen.
- As these bars cook, their appearance doesn’t change much. You will need to look closely to see that they have baked up and set into bars.
- These bars are best completely cooled. If you cut them too soon, they will be crumbly and fall apart.
- The sugar free butterscotch chips are optional but totally worth trying.
- We used erythritol based sweeteners ( i.e. Swerve or Sukrin). We have not tested this recipe with Splenda or other sweeteners.
- We baked these cookie bars in our Ninja Multi-Cooker Slow Cooker which is sadly no longer available. Here is another multicooker that is similar. Cooking times vary depending on your slow cooker.
