Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 4 cups thinly sliced peeled apples (about 4 medium apples)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll one pie crust and press it into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the melted butter, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well.
  3. Add the sliced apples and lemon juice to the butter mixture. Toss gently to coat the apples evenly.
  4. Spread the apple mixture over the crust in the baking pan.
  5. Unroll the second pie crust and place it over the apples. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  6. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbly.
  7. While the bars are still warm, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl to create a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the top of the bars.
  8. Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add a pinch of ground cloves to the apple mixture.
  • If you don’t have refrigerated pie crusts, you can make your own.
  • These bars are delicious served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
