Great recipe, I actually got this one from my grandmother and happened upon this one, which is the exact same. I made it exactly as is, and it turned out great! I almost ate the whole pan to myself.

My husband says not only said this was the best apple "pie" I have made but the best one anyone has made! I used butter flavored Chrisco. Otherwise just followed the recipe

I wouldn't consider these bars, more like apple pie in a 9x13. It was very good, but I did substitute oatmeal for the cornflakes. I took this to a young adults Sunday School class and they all loved it. I might try to make more of an icing for it next time, the glaze didn't do much for me. My suggestion is to roll out the dough on a silicone pastry mat and then flip it into the pan. That's the only thing that worked for me. I only used about 1/2 of the sugar but it was still great tasting. Will make again! Thanks for this recipe!

This recipe has been a family favorite for many years. I use less sugar, about a half cup, and less milk (enough to make 2/3 cup with egg yolk). This recipe can't be beat. Thanks for posting!

This was good - not the best, but certainly deserves some kudos. It was more like a big apple pie than a bar. The first time I rolled out the dough it looked good but fell apart as I tried to pick it up, so I threw it all back in and added more water. The second try rolled out a beautiful dough and easy to handle, however, not thick enough or firm enough to handle the weight of the filling to make it a finger dessert. It was delicious and people really liked it, but just not the bar that I was looking for.

This recipe was exactly what I was looking for! I used 1 1/2 recipe for the crust, and followed the rest of the recipe as is. I used Granny Smith apples so it was nice and tart. We put a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the top which was perfect!! I am making these for my kids school teachers this month.

Excellent recipe! I make two 9X13 pans of this for a Christmas breakfast. Everyone raved about it. Just the right texture. The only thing I might do differently next time is reduce the butter in the crust. Otherwise, I was very pleased.

This was delicious! I didn't use the icing since I didn't think the pastry needed it, but I'm sure it would be good with it as well. unlike past reviewers, I found that there was just the right amount of liquid in the crust; it never got sticky in the least. However, I do agree that 1.5 the crust would have been good just to make it easier to seal the edges together. Also, I could not tell the cornflakes were there but I'm sure it helped thicken the filling.

This recipe produced the best apple bars I have ever eaten. I made only one small change in the recipe. I substituted quick oatmeal for the cornflakes and found the texture and taste to be excellent.

Great recipe comparable to a family recipe I’ve been using for years. I like to prepare the apples first and let sit while making the crust. The sugar on the apples draw out juices that soften the corn flakes that complement the flavor of the apples. I use 2 egg yolks in a cup with enough milk to make 2/3 cup. And I put this in a 15 x 10 bar pan. I apply the two beaten egg whites after the bars have baked and pop them back into the oven to brown, then drizzle with glaze. Wonderful bars that are always a hit!

Love them! I didn't have walnuts so I used chopped pecans and I also added about 1/2 cup chocolate chips to make it more like a dessert. I also did 1 1/2 cup apples (I needed to get rid of them). Great recipe I'll make it again! Thanks

They taste delicious, but a few things to remember: 1. On the bottom layer, make sure you leave a little upward edge with the dough, as you have to connect it with the top layer later. 2. WAY too much liquid for the crust, which completely threw off my recipe. I didn't realize it until too late (alas- should have read the previous reviewer). And I only used about 1/2 of the egg water mixture. I would also 1.5 times the crust ingredients, as I ran out of crust on top. So my presentation was awful due to the crust situation, but if you take 1 & 2 into consideration early on, I bet it would be awesome. It's basically apple pie bars. Sadly, I couldn't taste or sense the corn flakes.

While making this I was thinking "I hope this is as good as I'm anticipating because it's kind of a pain." It's well worth the work! And it's not THAT hard. Excellent!!

always a favorite for my family! My mom uses a different recipe and I combine the 2. I find the water and egg yolk to be too much liquid. I use 1 yolk plus enough MILK to MAKE 2/3cup. Mom uses shortening instead of butter but I can't tell the difference. You can also use vanilla instead of almond flavor for the glaze. I also make this on a cookie sheet instead of in a pan. You can make it bigger that way :-D
