How to Make Apple Honey Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup honey, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract using a wire whisk or electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 1 minute).
- Stir in 1 cup unsweetened applesauce until just combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and diced apples.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
- Bake for 32-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached. The edges should be pulling away from the sides of the pan.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
