Reviews for Apple Pie Bars

Go back to recipe

These are nothing if not amazing! Yes, they ARE rather a heart attack waiting to happen, but oh-so-delicious! This dessert, though a 'bit' labor intensive, is already a family favorite! The apples MUST be sliced thinly, like that awful packaged cheese, and the carmelizing is best in two pans, as the recipe suggests. I tried it with one pan for the second batch and it just wasn't as spectacular! Make these! Everyone should love them! On a side note: a couple of us are allergic to walnuts so we substituted pecans. And, for the topping, you can melt the butter and toss the other ingredients until well coated before baking. That whole cutting in the butter thing is over rated.

I took this recipe for a charity bakesale at work.  I have had 10 requests for the recipe.  I used all organic ingredients and found the bars wonderful.  I even got a phone call at home from my friend's husbad to tell me how he loved the bars.

I was surprised by the review below.  Others must have agreed for an average star rating of "one star". However, they have worked for me twice.  I am an experienced baker but didn't do anything tricky.  Like apple pie, it probably depends on the quality of the apples.

These were pretty bad.  I've been baking since I was a kid--30 years ago, and I have a wonderful Dacor oven.  These were dry and yucky, and I followed the recipe to the letter.  Totally not worth the effort AND the amount of butter.
