Ingredients (for 9×9-inch pan)
Brownies
- 1/2 cup (115 g) butter, melted
- 1 cup (200 g) sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup (95 g) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup (25 g) cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup peeled and finely chopped apples (about 1 medium apple)
- Optional: 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Maple Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1–2 tsp milk or cream (to thin)
Instructions
- Preheat oven
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease or line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper.
- Make brownie batter
- In a bowl, mix melted butter and sugar until combined.
- Beat in eggs and vanilla.
- In another bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
- Fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined.
- Gently fold in chopped apples.
- Bake
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Bake 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (a few moist crumbs are okay).
- Cool & glaze
- Let brownies cool completely.
- Whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk until smooth.
- Drizzle over cooled brownies.
Tips
- Use crisp, sweet apples like Honeycrisp or Gala for best flavor.
- Add chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch.
- For stronger maple flavor, add 1/2 tsp maple extract to the glaze.
I can also give a one-bowl quick version or a mini muffin version if you want.
Do you want me to do that?
