Apple Pecan Maple Bars
3/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 c. butter, melted
1 TBS cinnamon extract
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
3/4 c. flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 c. chopped pecans
1/2 c. finely chopped Gala apple
Cinnamon for garnish
Frosting:
1 can Whipped Buttercream Frosting (I used Betty Crocker)
1 tsp. maple extract
Mix extract into frosting until well blended.
Preheat oven to 350. In a medium mixing bowl, combine sugar, butter and extracts until well blended. Add egg. Add flour and baking powder and mix well. Stir in apples and pecans. Spread into a greased 8x8 baking pan. (I used cooking spray w/ flour) Bake 25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool on wire rack and cut into squares, and frost if desired. (I found these are easiest frosted after cut) Garnish w/ cinnamon.
