This is a new favorite recipe I snagged from the Land O Lakes website. It's delicious. The recipe the way it is takes a lot of prep time. I made it once as is and the second time I cheated. The cheaters method - you need 3 premade piecrusts instead of making the pastry portion yourself (1 for the bottom & 2 for the top)
Pastry (unless you are using cheaters method)
1 Land O Lakes® All-Natural Egg, separated, reserve egg white
1/2 cup milk
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold Land O Lakes® Butter, cut into chunks
Filling (If you are serving within 2 days used the cornflakes, otherwise I recommend walnut or pecan pieces to keep the crunch)
1 cup crushed corn flakes
8 to 10 medium (8 cups) tart cooking apples, peeled, sliced ( I used Spy 1x and Macintosh)
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 reserved Land O Lakes® All-Natural Egg white
2 tablespoons sugar
Glaze (I almost skipped this step, but you do need it)
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 to 2 tablespoons milk
Directions
Heat oven to 350°F. Beat egg yolk in small bowl. Add 1/2 cup milk; mix well. Set aside.
Combine flour and salt in medium bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in egg yolk mixture with fork until dough forms a ball. Divide dough in half.
Roll out half of dough on lightly floured surface into 15x10-inch rectangle; place onto bottom of ungreased 15x10x1 inch jelly-roll pan. Sprinkle with corn flakes; top with apples.
Combine 1 cup sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon and nutmeg in small bowl. Sprinkle over apples. Roll remaining half of dough into 15 1/2x10 1/2-inch rectangle; place over apples.
Beat egg white with fork until foamy; brush over top crust. Combine remaining cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar in small bowl; sprinkle over crust. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes or until lightly browned.
Combine powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk for desired glazing consistency in small bowl. Drizzle over warm bars. YUM!!!
