Number Of Ingredients 17

1 egg (yolk only)
1/2 c milk
2-1/2 c flour
1 tsp salt
1 c cold butter, cut into chunks
FILLING
1 c crushed corn flakes
8-10 medium tart cooking apples, peeled, sliced
1 c sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 egg white
2 Tbsp sugar
GLAZE
1 c powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1-2 Tbsp milk

Steps:

  • 1. Beat yolk in bowl. Add 1/2 cup milk; mix well. Set aside.
  • 2. Combine flour and salt in bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg yolk mixture with fork until dough forms a ball. Divide dough in half.
  • 3. Roll out half of dough on lightly floured surface into a 15 X 10 inch rectangle; place onto bottom of ungreased 15 X 10 inch baking pan. Sprinkle with corn flakes; top with apples.
  • 4. Combine 1 cup sugar, 1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and nutmeg in bowl. Sprinkle over apples. Roll remaining half of dough into 15 1/2 X 10 1/2inch rectangle; place over apples.
  • 5. Beat reserved egg white with fork until foamy; brush over top crust. Combine remaining 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and 2 tbsp. sugar in bowl; sprinkle over crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-60 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 6. Combine powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk for desired glazing consistency in bowl. Drizzle over warm bars.
  • 7. If pastry dough does not form a ball easily, add up to 1 tbsp. additional milk, 1 tsp. at a time.
  • 8. To transfer pastry to baking pan, fold pastry in half; fold in half again. Place folded corner at center of pan. Unfold pastry carefully.
  • 9. Top pastry should be rolled on lightly floured surface slightly larger than bottom pastry to allow pastry to cover filling easily.
