Apple Spice Bars
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup oats (old-fashioned or quick-cooking)
- 1 Tbs cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/8 tsp allspice
- 2 cups peeled apple cubes (green apples work best, but any kind is fine)
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- Powdered sugar for garnish, optional
Directions
- Beat the butter with the sugars until creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients, minus the apples, walnuts, and lemon juice. Stir well and add to the mixing bowl. Beat just until combined.
- Combine the apples and walnuts and toss with the lemon juice.
- Fold the apple-walnut mixture into the mixing bowl. Spread into a greased 13 x 9 casserole dish.
- Bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool completely and cut into bars. Dust bars with powdered sugar, if desired.
