How to Make Apple Raisin Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Generously grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 2 large eggs using an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Reduce mixer speed to low and gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  7. Gently fold in 2 cups diced apples and ½ cup raisins.
  8. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. Enjoy!
