Ingredients
Ingredients
All-purpose flour
2 2/3 cups (Sifted)
Baking powder
2 teaspoons
Ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon
Ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon
Packed brown sugar
2 cups (Lightly packed)
Butter
1 cup (Room temperature)
Eggs
2 (Room temperature)
Vanilla extract
1 tablespoon
Granulated sugar
2 tablespoons
Ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a 9×13-inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and kosher salt. Set aside.
3
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the room temperature butter and packed brown sugar until the mixture is creamy and smooth, about 3-5 minutes.
4
Add the eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
5
Gradually add the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. The batter will be thick, similar to cookie dough.
6
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan using a greased spatula or your hands. Don’t worry if it seems a little sticky; just spray the spatula with cooking spray for easier handling.
7
In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and the remaining cinnamon. Evenly sprinkle this cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top of the batter.
8
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the surface feels springy to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
9
Allow the bars to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into 20-24 squares, depending on your desired serving size. Enjoy!
