Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper.
Mix the almond flour, cornstarch, salt, coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract together in a bowl.
Press the crust mixture evenly into an 8×8 pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool while you prepare the pecan filling.
To make the topping, add the coconut oil, coconut sugar, salt and vanilla together in a pot and melt on medium heat. Bring the mixture to a slight boil for 30 seconds, mixing constantly to prevent it from burning.
Turn off the heat and add the pecans. Mix until evenly coated.
Pour the mixture on top of the almond cookie crust, spreading evenly.
Bake the bars at 350 degrees F for 20-30 minutes.
Let cool completely before cutting.

Keep an eye on the pecan pie topping mixture, and stir it a lot to prevent it from burning.

Store on the counter for a week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
