How to Make Dutch Apple Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour and 1/3 cup (60g) granulated sugar.
- Cut in 1/2 cup (113g) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or two knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9x9 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup (60g) granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons (10g) all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Add 4 cups (about 5 medium) peeled and sliced apples to the sugar mixture and toss to coat evenly.
- Spread the apple mixture evenly over the baked crust.
- Sprinkle with the remaining crumb topping (reserve about 1/4 for sprinkling on top).
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is light golden brown and the apples are tender. Watch carefully to prevent over-baking.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into 16 (4x4) bars.
