Ingredients
12tablespoons(1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, divided
1cuplight brown sugar, divided
4tablespoonswhite miso, divided
1large egg
2teaspoonsvanilla extract
3cupswhite whole-wheat flour
1teaspoonground cardamom
¼teaspoonsalt
8tart apples, such as Granny Smith, peeled and chopped
2 ½tablespoonslemon juice
1 ½teaspoonsground cinnamon
½teaspoonground ginger
½cuppecans, chopped
Directions
Combine 10 tablespoons butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons miso, egg and vanilla in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add flour, cardamom and salt; mix until just combined. Refrigerate 1 cup for the topping and press the remaining dough into the prepared pan. Chill for 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Bake the crust until the edges are lightly browned, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons each butter and miso in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining 1/4 cup brown sugar, apples, lemon juice, cinnamon and ginger. Adjust heat to maintain a lively simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are very tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, 15 to 18 minutes. Spread over the crust. Mix pecans into the reserved topping and crumble over the top.
Bake the bars until lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan, about 1 1/2 hours, before cutting into 18 bars.
Tips
To make ahead: Store bars airtight at room temperature for up to 1 day.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
