Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prep the Pan
- Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish, or line it with parchment for easy lifting later.
- Mix the Base
- In a large bowl, stir together the flour, granulated sugar, and baking powder.
- Add the Wet Ingredients
- Pour in the melted butter, crack in the eggs, and add vanilla. Stir just until everything comes together. (Don’t overmix—we want fluffy bars, not bricks!)
- Create the Cinnamon Blend
- In a separate small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon until evenly combined.
- Layer & Swirl
- Spread half of the batter into your prepared pan. Sprinkle on half the cinnamon-sugar mix. Spoon the remaining batter in dollops over the top, then cover with the rest of the cinnamon blend. Drag a knife gently through the layers to create that dreamy swirl.
- Bake to Golden Bliss
- Pop it in the oven and bake for about 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set. The heavenly smell will tell you when they’re ready!
Notes
Slice into bars once cooled (if you can wait that long). These beauties are tender, swirly, and oh-so-addictive—making them the ultimate easy after dinner snacks, work desserts, or cozy weekend treats.
