Cómo preparar Applesauce Cereal Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9-inch baking pan.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup packed brown sugar and ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 cup unsweetened applesauce and 1 large egg until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients from the small bowl to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in 3 cups of your favorite cereal (like Cheerios or Rice Krispies).
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- While the bars are baking, prepare the glaze:
- In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons milk.
- Microwave on medium power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the butter and sugar are melted and the glaze is smooth.
- Pour the warm glaze over the cooled bars.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
- Optional: Substitute 1 cup crushed pineapple (undrained) for the applesauce for a tropical twist!
