  • 1 cup vegetable oil (or melted butter)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, brown sugar, oil, and eggs until smooth.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Combine & Fold: Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Add Pecans: Fold in the chopped pecans evenly.
  6. Bake: Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool & Serve: Allow to cool completely before slicing into squares. Best served at room temperature or slightly warm.
