INGREDIENTS

  • Base Dough

    • 🥚 1 large egg
    • 3 cups all-purpose flour
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt
    • 1 cup shortening
    • 🥛 ½ cup milk

  • Filling

    • 🍎 6 cups diced apples
    • 🧂 1 cup brown sugar
    • 3 tablespoons sour cream
    • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    • 🧈 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 10x15-inch baking pan. Divide the egg; set aside the egg white for filling.

2

Combine flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in shortening with 2 knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in milk and egg yolk until incorporated. Divide the dough into two equal pieces. Pat one piece into the bottom of the prepared pan; set other piece aside.

3

Mix apples, brown sugar, sour cream, flour, butter, and cinnamon together until well combined. Pour over the dough in the pan.

4

Roll or pat the remaining dough into a rectangle and place it on top of the filling. Beat the reserved egg white until frothy and brush it over the dough.

5

Bake until the top and bottom are golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

6

Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely, about 30 minutes, before cutting into bars.
