apple blondies

Make the best apple blondies with melt-in-your mouth flavour, fresh apples in the batter, cinnamon and nutmeg. 

Apple Blondies

butter

apples

cinnamon (divided)

butter (melted)

brown sugar

tsp vanilla extract

all purpose flour

tsp salt

nutmeg

Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.

Heat a medium frying pan over medium-low heat. Melt butter, add apples and cook, stirring occasionally until very soft and caramelized, about 12-15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 tsp cinnamon.

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk melted butter with brown sugar until combine. Whisk in egg and vanilla extract.

Using a spatula, stir in flour, salt, remaining cinnamon and nutmeg. Fold in apple slices.

Pour batter into prepared pan. Smooth the top and bang the bottom on the counter to ensure batter is even in the pan.

Bake in the centre of the oven for 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven, allow to cool for 15 minutes, then flip and cool completely on a wire rack. Cut into 16 squares.

These apple blondies are so dense and moist with a sweet caramel frosting on top! They're baked with tender cinnamon apples and drizzled with a simple 3 ingredient caramel sauce - all completely gluten and dairy free.

Frosted Caramel Apple Blondies

light brown sugar

tsp cinnamon

(80 grams) pure maple syrup

tbsp Natural SunButter

tbsp coconut cream *the thick cream from a can of coconut milk

(220 grams) powdered sugar

kosher salt

(125 grams) Natural SunButter

(60 grams) unsweetened apple sauce

(150 grams) light brown sugar, packed

(100 grams) oat flour, certified gluten free

(95 grams) quick oats, certified gluten free

cinnamon

tsp kosher salt

Combine the ingredients in a saucepan and place over medium heat.

Stir and cook for about 5 minutes, or until fragrant and the apples start to become tender.

Transfer the apples to a bowl and reserve the saucepan for the caramel. 

Cinnamon Apples

In that same saucepan (it&#8217;s ok if there are some cinnamon sugar bits in the pot), add the maple syrup, SunButter, and coconut cream.

Place over medium heat and whisk until everything is melted together.

Continue to whisk occasionally and allow the mixture to bubble. Once bubbling, the caramel should start to thicken. 

Remove the caramel once it coats the back of a spoon. Pour it into a heat safe dish and transfer the caramel to the refrigerator to chill while we make the blondies.

Caramel Frosting

Preheat the oven to 350F and grease and line an 8&#215;8 baking sheet with parchment paper. Allow the paper to reach over the sides for easy removal.

In a mixing bowl, stir together the SunButter, apple sauce, and brown sugar.

Once combined, stir in the eggs and vanilla.

Toss in the oat flour, oats, cinnamon, and salt and stir to combine. Then fold in the cinnamon apples.

Transfer to the baking pan and spread the batter evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the center is firm to the touch.

Allow the bars to cool completely before making the frosting. They can be cooled slowly at room temp or sped up in the refrigerator. 

Add the room temperature butter and 1 cup of powdered sugar to a mixing bowl. The butter should be soft enough to mix by hand, but an electric mixer can also be used.

Once smooth, mix in the additional cup of powdered sugar followed by the vanilla and salt.

By this time, the caramel should be completely chilled. Spoon half of the caramel into the frosting and mix until smooth.

Spread the frosting on top of the blondies and then drizzle with the excess caramel. Swirl the caramel into the frosting and top with a few pinches of cinnamon (optional).

Let&#039;s bake the scent of Fall! These wonderful Apple Blondies are a great addition to your dessert to bring in the feeling of Fall in all of your house. Share this amazing recipe with your family and friends and they may just fall in love.
