    • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined, then fold in the chopped nuts.

    • Allow the bars to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
