Tastes Like Apple Pie Apple Squares! image

From my favourite church cookbook, where all the recipes are tried and true! **Like most of the reviews state, if you don't want to fight with the pastry to make it fit a cookie sheet - make 1.5x the dough recipe or use a smaller pan.

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 cookie sheet, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup shortening
1 large egg yolk, slightly beaten, plus (save white)
milk, to make 2/3 cup liquid
5 -6 apples, pared and sliced
1 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup icing sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Mix flour and salt and cut in shortening. Add egg and milk mixture and mix till it forms a ball. Divide dough in half. Roll first half in 17 x 12 inch rectangle. Place in cookie sheet and bring pastry up sides.
  • Cover pastry with apples and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon (homemade chunky applesauce also works well).
  • Roll out second half of dough and place on top of apples. Moisten edges with milk and pinch together.

  • Mix glaze ingredients together and brush on crust.

These apple squares are a great way to use up leftover apples. I always have a few apples lying around, and this is a great way to use them up.

I'm not a big fan of apples, but I loved these apple squares. The crust was so flaky and the apples were perfectly tender.

I made these apple squares with a gluten-free flour blend, and they turned out great! They were just as delicious as the regular version.

These apple squares are the perfect combination of sweet and tart. I love the way the apples caramelize in the oven.

These apple squares were a hit! The crust was flaky and buttery, and the apples were tender and flavorful. I added a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg to the apples for extra flavor, and it was perfect. I will definitely be making these again!
