Description

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup (200g) caster/granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup (100g) light or dark brown sugar
• 1 large egg + 1 egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (125g) plain/all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2 small apples (I used Gala), peeled, cored, and chopped into small cubes

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with aluminium foil or parchment paper and spray with baking spray. Set aside.
• Whisk together the butter and sugars until smooth and combined. Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla, and salt, and whisk vigorously until smooth and combined. Fold in the flour, and spices until completely combined, then fold in the apples.
• Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan, and bake for about 45 - 50 minutes, or until the top is no longer soft and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Do not over-bake. Allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares. I like to leave mine in the fridge for 1 - 2 hours before slicing, as they are more firm and I get cleaner, neater cuts.
