Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing a slight overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and egg. Whisk until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon for the topping.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the topping mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the mixture until it forms a crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar topping evenly over the batter in the pan.
Bake the bars in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out and onto a cutting board.
Slice into 12 bars and serve. Enjoy your Cinnamon Flop Bars with coffee, tea, or as a delightful dessert!
