Tips:

  • Use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. This will help create a flaky crust.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin and make it easier to work with.
  • Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface. This will help prevent the dough from sticking to the counter or rolling pin.
  • When assembling the apple squares, be sure to spread the apple filling evenly over the bottom of the crust. This will help ensure that each square has a good amount of filling.
  • Bake the apple squares until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. This will take about 30 minutes.
  • Let the apple squares cool slightly before cutting them into squares. This will help prevent the filling from spilling out.
  • Serve the apple squares warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed on their own or topped with whipped cream, ice cream, or caramel sauce.
