Cinnamon Apple Pie Bars

Cinnamon Apple Pie Bars

It has taken me a while to find a good recipe, but finally with some different trials I find this has a great balance of cinnamon and nutmeg. Not to mention it is so much easier than apple pie and I think it tastes better. You can arrange the top crust lattice-style if desired.

Ingredients

Topping

  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk, or as needed
  • 1 dash vanilla extract
  • 1 (15 ounce) package pastry for a 9-inch double crust pie
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced, or more to taste
  • 3 gala apples, peeled and sliced, or more to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2
Roll 1 pie crust pastry onto a work surface; lightly roll with a rolling pin until crust is a 9×13-inch rectangle, cutting crust if needed. Press crust into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish, placing leftover crust pieces in the corners.

Step 3
Whisk white sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a large bowl. Toss Granny Smith apples and gala apples in sugar mixture until evenly coated. Spread apple mixture evenly over pie crust; pour remaining juices over apples.

Step 4
Roll the remaining pie crust to 9×13-inch rectangle and place over apple layer, folding edges over apples to completely cover.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until crust is lightly browned, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool apple bars slightly, about 20 minutes.

Step 6
Whisk confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until topping is smooth and desired consistency; drizzle over bars.
