Ingredients

    For the Crust and Crumble
    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
    For the Filling
    3 medium apples (I used Fuji), peeled and cut into slices
    1/4 cup granulated sugar
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, more for dusting
    For the Glaze
    1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
    2 tablespoons milk
    1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Spray and 8-x-8-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
1. In a medium bowl, mix together flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Using a pastry cutter (or your hands), cut in butter until you have small crumbles. Set aside.
2. In another bowl, prepare the filling. Mix together sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Toss sliced apples in the mixture and coat evenly.
3. Press about 2/3 of the crumble mixture into the prepared baking pan. Spread apple slices evenly over the crust and top with remaining crumble mixture. Place in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until apples are tender. Remove from the oven and let cool.
4. When bars have almost finished cooling, mix together all the ingredients for the glaze until smooth. Drizzle over the bars and let set for 5 minutes before cutting in individual bars. Enjoy!
