Apple Walnut Blondies With Maple Butter Glaze image

Full of flavor, these are the perfect blondies for fall. They have just the right gooey texture and are jam-packed full of apples and almost have a caramel flavor. Drizzled on top, the maple glaze complements all the flavors. Yum!

Number Of Ingredients 17

2/3 cup(s) shortening, butter flavor
1 cup(s) white sugar
1 cup(s) brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon(s) baking powder
1 teaspoon(s) vanilla
1 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1/2 teaspoon(s) cinnamon
2 cup(s) all-purpose flour
2 large apples cored, peeled, diced
1/2 cup(s) chopped walnuts
FOR THE GLAZE
3 tablespoon(s) butter, softened
1 cup(s) powdered sugar
2-3 tablespoon(s) milk
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1 teaspoon(s) maple extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350*.
  • In a large bowl mix and cream together the sugars and the shortening. If you don't have butter-flavored shortening, you can add butter-flavored extract. I recommend Crisco.
  • Add eggs one at a time; mixing well after each egg.
  • Add baking powder, salt, vanilla, and cinnamon.
  • Add flour a little at a time mixing well. Batter will be really thick, kinda like dough.
  • Fold in apples and walnuts.
  • Spread into greased 9x13 baking dish.
  • Bake for approx. 25-30 mins until golden on top and it no longer looks wet.
  • While blondies are baking, mix up the glaze. It should have the consistency of pancake batter.
  • After blondies are done baking remove them from the oven, wait about 5 minutes then drizzle glaze over the blondies. Let cool for about 15 mins, then cut and serve. :)
