How to cook deliciously - Easy Caramel Apple Pie Bars

1. Stage

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

2. Stage

Combine flour, 1 cup butter, 3/4 cup white sugar, egg, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor; pulse until crumbled and easily formed into dough when pinched. Pour 3/4 of the dough into the prepared pan; press down with your hands until crust is even and well packed.

3. Stage

Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add apples, brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt; cook and stir until apples are softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in cornstarch; mix, adding more cornstarch if needed, until liquids are thickened.

4. Stage

Pour apple mixture onto crust; smooth with a spatula until even. Crumble remaining dough on top.

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until crumbles on top are lightly brown, 30 to 40 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes; cut into bars.
