Healthy Pecan Pie Dump Cake Recipe (Low Sugar & Gooey!)

Spray the bottom of a measuring cup with non-stick cooking spray before pouring in 1 cup of maple syrup.

Add 1/2 cup of plant-based butter to the maple syrup.

In a separate bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of water with 1 tablespoon of arrowroot (or cornstarch) to create a slurry.

Add the slurry to the maple syrup and butter mixture.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and stir the mixture until combined.

Pour the filling into a lightly sprayed 9x13 baking dish.

Spread 1.5 to 2 cups of pecans evenly over the filling.

In a bowl, combine 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a dash of salt.

In another bowl, mix together 1 cup of almond milk, 1/4 cup of light tasting vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing until just combined without over mixing.

Pour the batter over the pecan pie filling without stirring it in.

Bake until the pecans are caramelized and the texture is gooey.
