Cook Time 50 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Yield 20 - 25 bars

Ingredients

  • 2 cups spelt, white, or oat flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup sugar, unrefined if desired
  • 3/4 cup butter, coconut oil, or almond butter (150g)
  • 3 tbsp milk of choice or additional butter
  • 3 1/4 cup diced apple (2 large or 3 medium)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot
  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup, or sweetener of choice

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Stir the first five ingredients together, then cut in the butter or stir in the oil. (Also add an additional 1/4 tsp salt if using oil or unsalted butter.) Press about 2/3 of the dough firmly into the bottom of an 8x8 pan lined with parchment paper. Toss the apples with the cornstarch and liquid sweetener, then spread this over the crust. Sprinkle remaining dough evenly over everything, and press down. Bake 50 minutes, then let cool before slicing into bars.
    The coconut oil version (which is shown in the photos) will be more crumbly, so I recommend chilling the bars before cutting for cleaner slices.
