Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, honey, and brown sugar. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Add the vanilla extract and eggs to the wet mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated and the mixture looks glossy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift them out of the pan.
For extra sweetness, dust the top with powdered sugar before slicing into 12 bars. Serve and enjoy!
