  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cups peeled and chopped apples (about 4 medium apples)

  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  3. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture is crumbly and well combined.
  4. Press half of the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
  5. In a separate bowl, toss the chopped apples with granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
  6. Spread the apple mixture evenly over the crumb base in the pan.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture evenly over the apple layer.
  8. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly.
  9. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of ground cloves to the apple mixture.
