Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups Honey
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 Large eggs
• 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (optional, such as walnuts or almonds)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter, then stir in the honey and brown sugar. Remove from heat once fully combined, and let it cool slightly to prevent cooking the eggs in the next step.

Step 4

Once cooled, add the vanilla extract and eggs to the butter-honey mixture, whisking until smooth.

Step 5

Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. If desired, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely before slicing into rectangles or squares.

Step 9

Serve and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
