Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup milk (whole or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup melted butter (cooled)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
  • 2 tbsp milk (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish and line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs with maple syrup, milk, and cooled melted butter until smooth.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown; a toothpick should come out clean when inserted.
  6. Allow bars to cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. For the glaze, mix powdered sugar with milk until smooth and drizzle over cooled bars before serving.
