Adapted from this recipe:
Salted Butterscotch Apple Bars (better known as Apple Brownies)
I made a double-batch of the above recipe, using these ingredients:
3/4 cup olive oil
slightly less than 2 cups of sugar, with some date syrup mixed in (as a brown sugar substitute as I didn't have any)
2 eggs' worth of egg replacer (the powder kind made from chia seeds and chickpea flour)
4 teaspoons vanilla
1 and 1/4 cup white wheat flour + 3/4 cup of other flour (millet & buckwheat)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
cardamom (I did not measure it; about 1/2 teaspoon)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1.5 teaspoon salt
3 cups apple, peeled & diced into 1/4 inch pieces (I used 1 small green apple and 2 red/green apples)
I mixed the ingredients together, stirring the diced apples in last.
I greased a large glass baking pan, 9.5" by 13.5", with coconut oil, and spread the batter in the pan.
I baked it at 350 degrees for 75 minutes. Then I turned the oven off and left the pan in for another 15 minutes before taking it out to cool.
The batter looked like this before baking:
These were the baked bars after transferring them into a different pan:
As mentioned before, they were very scrumptious! It is not very obvious there are apples in the final baked product, but they undoubtedly contribute to the sweet chewy goodness.
