APPLE PECAN SQUARES | Sngine-YND

These Apple Pecan Squares are a simple dessert and perfect for just a few people. Add the caramel sauce for a real treat!

❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE

We’ve received several requests for smaller desserts suitable for just a few people! This is the perfect recipe for just that! It’s made in an 8X8, and it’s a great way to enjoy apples. We added a little caramel sauce to the end product for a little extra sweetness. We love apple recipes and this one was also a winner. We werent sure what to name it, we thought about Apple Pecan Blondies but they aren’t the exact consistency of a blondie and it’s not exactly cake either. So squares it is!

SWAPS

This is a very versatile recipe, you can switch out the spices to any that you like. If you prefer allspice, add it, don’t like nutmeg, simple leave it out. You could also use almond extract instead of vanilla. Also, we added a simple caramel sauce to the finished product but it’s not necessary. You could also add a basic powdered sugar glaze.

⭐TIP

If you don’t let them cool before slicing they will crumble a little. Also you can use any apples you like! We used Cosmic apples.
