Description
Delicious apple brownies topped with a sweet maple glaze, perfect for dessert or a sweet treat.
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 medium apples, peeled and finely diced
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1–2 tablespoons milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
- In another bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- Gradually combine dry ingredients with wet ingredients. Gently fold in diced apples.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Whisk powdered sugar, maple syrup, melted butter, vanilla, and enough milk to create a smooth, pourable glaze.
- Allow brownies to cool for 20–30 minutes. Drizzle maple glaze generously over the top. Let set before slicing into squares.
Notes
- Ensure apples are finely diced for even distribution in the brownies.
- Adjust the amount of milk in the glaze for desired consistency.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
