Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Flour
2 cups Brown sugar
1/2 cup Butter
1 cup Walnuts
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Baking soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1 Egg
1 cup Sour cream
1 tsp Vanilla
2 Tart apples

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your Apple Walnut Bars bake to perfection.

  2. Prepare pan: Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch baking pan, ensuring that your bars won’t stick during baking.

  3. Prepare crust: In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and butter. Mix these ingredients until they are finely crumbled, creating a deliciously textured crust for your bars.

  4. Add walnuts: Stir in the walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the crust mixture, adding a delightful crunch to every bite.

  5. Press crust: Take 2 cups of the crust mixture and press it evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. This forms the sturdy foundation for your Apple Walnut Bars.

  6. Prepare filling: To the remaining crust mixture, add cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Blend these dry ingredients well to infuse the filling with warm, aromatic flavors.

  7. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the egg, sour cream, and vanilla together until smooth and creamy.

  8. Incorporate apples: Gently stir the tart apples into the wet mixture, ensuring they are coated in the creamy batter. This adds a burst of fruity flavor to every bite of your bars.

  9. Assemble bars: Spoon the apple mixture evenly over the pressed crust in the baking pan, spreading it out to create a smooth and even layer.

  10. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the cake begins to pull away from the sides of the pan and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. This ensures that your bars are baked through and perfectly golden brown.

  11. Cool: Once baked, allow the Apple Walnut Bars to cool completely in the pan. This allows the flavors to meld and the bars to set properly.

  12. Serve: Once cooled, cut the bars into squares and top each with a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat. Serve and enjoy!

These Apple Walnut Bars are a delightful blend of sweet and nutty flavors, perfect for any occasion. Whether enjoyed as a dessert or a sweet snack, they are sure to impress with their irresistible taste and comforting aroma. Try making them today and share the joy with your loved ones! 🍎🥧
