How to Make Apple And Ginger Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch square baking pan.
- Peel, core, and chop the 3 medium apples into ½-inch pieces.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in ½ cup golden syrup (or maple syrup/honey).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently until just combined. Fold in the chopped apples.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the squares cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares or slices.
- For an extra touch, serve with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
