How to Make Apple Orange Brownies
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, melt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter. Remove from heat and stir in 1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar until well combined.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in ½ cup applesauce, 1 tablespoon orange zest, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
