Very good! I was looking for a quick, "fallish" afternoon snack to make today, and this fit the bill perfectly! I followed BarbiAnn's directions exactly, except for omitting the walnuts (I only had pecans on hand and didn't feel they would be a good substitute) and using about 3/4 cups worth of GrannySmith apple (my large apple was well over a 1/2 cup's worth; I realized that half of it would suffice, but decided to add a tad more - and then eat the rest!). I used my 9 inch Pampered Chef stoneware baking dish for this and baked for a total of 27.5 minutes. I still think I could have baked longer, but the top was VERY brown so I decided not to.... My only suggestions (for next time!) are to double the recipe (not the topping tho) and cover with foil to prevent excessive browning. I think with these changes, my bars would turn out even better! As is, they are just too thin (IMHO) and don't hold up well once cut (they crumble easily), but that's a minor complaint that can easily be corrected by doubling the batter. Thanks for sharing your idea, Barbi :)
