Apple Blondies

These Apple Blondies are soft, chewy, and buttery with just the right hint of cinnamon and chunks of juicy apple throughout. They’re a quick and easy bake that makes your kitchen smell amazing, and the texture is that perfect balance between gooey and golden. They slice neatly once cool, making them great for packed lunches or afternoon snacks. Delicious on their own or slightly warm with a scoop of ice cream.
