Easy Apple Pie Bars -Recipe

I'm not a big fan of apple pie but I had some apple pie filling I had to use so I just made these in hopes that my kids would eat them. I ended up eating 1/3 of the pan over the course of just a few days, they were so good. My favorite part is the pastry part its a lot thicker and moist than regular pie crust so it gives it a richer texture and taste. Yum!

Need:

2-3/4 cups flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter

1 egg

Milk (about 2/3 cup)

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

favorite apple pie filling

1. 1. In a medium-size bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Mash the butter into the flour until the mixture is crumbly. Separate the egg yolk and white, reserving both parts. Beat the yolk in a liquid measuring cup, then add enough milk to measure 2/3 cup and blend well. Stir together the yolk-milk mixture and flour mixture until the ingredients form a sticky dough. 
   2.Halve the dough and flatten each half into a 3/4-inch-thick disk. Cover the disks in plastic wrap and refrigerate them until well chilled, at least 30 minutes.
   3.Heat the oven to 350 f. degrees. 
   4.On a sheet of waxed paper, roll one portion of dough into a 15-1/2- by 10-1/2-inch rectangle. Transfer the dough to an ungreased 15- by 10-inch baking sheet. 
   
   
   
   5. Spread a thick layer of your favorite apple pie filling on the bottom layer of the pastry dough.
   6.Roll out the remaining dough like in the last step. Transfer the top dough onto the layer of pie filling.  Use the tines of a fork to seal the dough edges.
   7.In a small bowl, use a fork to beat the reserved egg white until foamy, then brush it over the dough. And to top it all off Sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon over the egg brushed crust.
   
   
2. 8. Bake the pastry until lightly browned, about 45 to 50 minutes. Let it cool than serve.
   
   
   
   Enjoy!
