Incredibly easy 7-ingredient Toffee Bars recipe! Quick homemade caramel sauce and pecans make this a tasty treat!
With the holidays approaching, now is the time to finalize your holiday baking!
I don’t know about you, but I usually have a baking list a mile long, so I’m all about any dessert that doesn’t take a lot of time, OR a lot of fancy ingredients.
I love these toffee bars because they use ingredients I usually have here at home anyway, and they’re ready in about 20 minutes from start to finish (not including cooling time).
That’s a holiday baking game-changer!

HELPFUL TIPS TO MAKE SALTED CARAMEL PECAN TOFFEE BARS:
- This recipe uses graham crackers instead of the traditional saltine crackers, because I love the sweet nuttiness they bring. You can substitute saltines for them if it’s what you have on hand or prefer.
- The quick homemade caramel sauce is super easy, so don’t be intimidated by making it yourself. I promise, you CAN do this.
- If you prefer a different nut, you can use an equivalent amount of your preferred nut (such as peanuts, cashews, etc).
- To save on time, I buy the chopped pecans, but if you have larger pieces, just chop them with your knife.
- Don’t forget to line your pan with aluminum foil… the last thing you want to be trying to clean up is baked on caramel sauce!
- For the chocolate lovers, feel free to spread or drizzle melted chocolate over the top.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE SALTED CARAMEL PECAN TOFFEE BARS:
- Jelly Roll Pan - the perfect size for the graham crackers to lay in one layer, and it’s such a versatile pan!
- Offset Spatula - spread the caramel sauce with ease, in an even layer! Great for desserts of all kinds.
Enjoy!
With love from our simple kitchen to yours.
