Ingredients
- ▢4 tablespoons butter
- ▢1 cup sugar
- ▢2 large eggs
- ▢1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ▢2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and finely chopped)
- ▢1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- ▢1 cup all-purpose or white wheat flour
- ▢1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ▢1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- ▢1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- ▢1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Position an oven rack in the center and preheat oven to 350F degrees.
- Grease an 8 x 8-inch square baking pan. (Or for easy cleanup, since these apple brownies are a bit sticky, line a pan with foil and grease the foil.)
- Place the butter in a mixing bowl and beat it with an electric mixer on medium until creamy.
- Gradually add the sugar while continuing to beat. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until creamy.
- Stir in the chopped apples and nuts.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Gently stir the flour mixture into the apple mixture. (The batter will be very thick.)
- Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cut into 16 squares.
