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.
