Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups of chopped mixed nuts such as pecans, almonds, and walnuts
  • 1 cup of sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ teaspoon of salt

Instructions
 

The Crumbly Base Layer

  • The foundation of the Great Harvest Savannah Bar recipe is its crumbly base layer. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of flour, ½ cup of granulated sugar, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add in the softened butter and vanilla extract. Mix until the ingredients come together to form a dough-like consistency.

Preparing The Nutty Filling

  • The nutty filling is what gives these bars their unique texture and taste. In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs and 1 cup of brown sugar until the mixture becomes smooth. Add the remaining ½ cup of flour and ½ teaspoon of salt. Gently fold in the chopped mixed nuts and sweetened shredded coconut.

Achieving The Perfect Bake

  • Press the crumbly base layer evenly into a greased baking pan. Pour the nutty filling mixture over the base, ensuring an even distribution. Place the pan in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top turns golden brown.

Letting It Cool: Patience Rewarded

  • Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. This step is essential to ensure that the bars are set properly and are easy to cut into neat squares.

Adding The Finishing Touches

  • Once the bars have cooled, carefully cut them into squares of your desired size. Dust the tops with powdered sugar for a touch of elegance and an extra hint of sweetness.
