Description
These Apple Brownies are a delightful twist on traditional brownies, combining the flavors of apples, cinnamon, and toasted pecans for a delicious treat.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (133 g)
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Wet Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup salted butter, room temperature (112 g)
- 1 cup sugar (200 g)
- 1 egg
- 1 cup chopped apple pieces (100 g)
- 1/2 cup toasted pecan pieces (53 g)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉. In a small pan, toast the pecan pieces until fragrant; set aside to cool.
- Peel, core, and chop apples into small chunks, about 1/2 inch.
- In a mixing bowl, cream the butter & sugar, then add the egg and mix until fluffy.
- Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix just until combined.
- Add the apples and pecans and mix well. The batter will now be sticky and wet from the apples.
- Pour and press the batter into a buttered 8×8 baking dish (or lined with parchment). Bake for 30-45 minutes or until golden brown across the crust. Time will vary depending on your oven. It took about 35 minutes for me.
- Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before slicing.
- Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy with a scoop of ice cream!
