Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bars to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Once the bars are completely cool, drizzle the maple glaze over the top. Let it set for a few minutes before slicing.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter before baking.
- For a chocolate twist, substitute half of the flour with cocoa powder and add chocolate chips to the batter.
