Expert Tips

Empire, Regent and Spartan apples are good choices for baked apple desserts.

Skip the cooking spray and line pan with foil for quick cleanup and easy bar removal.

I made two versions of these, one with walnuts, since my son is allergic to pecans, and one without. OMG!!!! they are wonderful. I did however put more apple than it called for, I think more would have been even better. My husband would not stop eating them. Great recipe! I will make them again, and again. Very quick and easy to make. TiMi

These are soooo yummy! I followed the directions exactly (except that I used a whole large apple, which was probably a little more than 1 cup), and it turned out perfectly! The tartness of the Granny Smith apple was a perfect balance to the sweetness of the bar. We ate them while they were still just a little warm, and they were a huge hit! A scoop of ice cream would have been an excellent addition. [For those who felt there was not enough mix to cover the bottom of the 13x9 pan -- I found it helpful to use my hands to gently smooth the mixture to the edges. There was enough to make a thin layer -- which puffed up while baking.]
