Caramel Apple Blondies
I figured I have tortured you all long enough by not posting a tasty recipe for a few days (or has it been even longer?). I don’t think it is possible to get all “pumpkined out”, but I thought I would switch to apple recipes for a bit.
Every Fall, my family and I like to visit a place in Northern California, called Apple Hill. It’s off Hwy 50 and it is what it says it is – a hill of several different apple farms. You can get tasty treats, pick your own apples, listen to music and eat bbq, and shop in cute little homemade type shops. There are some farms that just sell tons of great produce (mainly apples), apple butter, apple cider, apple pie, etc. You get the picture. I love the farms where they have apple samples, where you get to taste and compare the large variety of apples. I usually learn of a new one everytime I go! The atmosphere is just fabulous! I have been waiting for cooler weather, to really enjoy the full experience, so perhaps next week we’ll make a day of it.
This recipe for Caramel Apple Blondies is superb and is best when eaten warm. That helps the caramel not to get stuck in your teeth too. 😉 It was originally titled as a brownie, but I thought a blondie was more fitting. This recipe comes from Lemons for Lulu.
Caramel Apple Blondies
- 1 cup softened butter
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 eggs

We’re going to a dinner tonight and I decided to make a double batch of these for dessert. Well…my 15 yo son helped me measure the flour, cinnamon & baking powder…that didn’t go so well, the flour was fine but he did tablespoons instead of teaspoons of the cinnamon & baking powder. I tried to remove as much extra as possible & I thought I got most of the extra powder out but they’re awful bubbly right now. And I know they will be extra cinnamonny…they’re in the oven and have been for almost an hour now but they still look gooey inside so we’ll try a little longer. I saw someone else on Lemons for Lulu comment about crispy top & gooey inside so we’ll see how it goes.
