Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose four
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter
- 3-4 tablespoons ice water
- 5 large apples of choice (I used fuji) peeled, cored and thinly sliced
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground clove
For the Streusel Topping:
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- ½ cup salted butter
- 1 cup sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place 2 cups flour and salt in a food processor and pulse until blended.
- Next add 1 cup butter and pulse until the mixture is coarse, like small peas. If needed while pulsing, add just enough ice water to form moist crumbs. Press the mixture into the bottom of a buttered 13x9-in baking pan. Bake until edges are lightly browned, 20-25 minutes.
- Remove crust from oven. In a large bowl, combine the apples, 1 cup sugar, cinnamon and ground cloves. Stir well. Spoon the apples over the crust.
For the Streusel:
- Place 1 cup flour, ½ cup butter and 1 cup sugar in food processor and pulse until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle streusel over apples. Bake until the top is golden brown and apples are tender, 55-65 minutes. Allow to cool before cutting. Cut into bars, top with vanilla bean ice cream and enjoy!
