Ingredients
Scale
- Blondies
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup butter (softened)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- Apple Filling
- 2 large apples (chopped finely)
- 2 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- Maple Glaze
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 and line an 11×7 pan with tin foil or spray with cooking spray.
- On medium-low heat, cook apple filling mixture for about 3-4 minutes. Pull off heat and allow to cool.
- Cream butter until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add in brown sugar and granulated sugar, and mix until well combined.
- Add in eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Add in salt and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and cinnamon together. Add to the wet ingredients and stir until combined.
- In the bottom of the pan, spread half the blondie batter evenly.
- Spread apple filling all over the layer.
- Top with remaining blondie batter and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean.
- Melt butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon over low heat. Once melted together, pull off the heat.
- Sift in powdered sugar, and whisk until fully combined. Allow to cool for 8-10 minutes so the glaze can thicken.
- Allow bars to cool for about 10 minutes, then pour the glaze over the bars and allow it to set.
- Slice into squares and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container.
