2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
½ cup soy margarine
1cups Wholesome Sweeteners Fair Trade Organic SUCANAT®,
1 teaspoon organic vanilla extract
1 organic cage-free egg or 1 egg’s worth of egg replacement
4-5 organic apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thin
1/3 cup Wholesome Sweeteners Fair Trade Organic SUCANAT®
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2½ tablespoons soy margarine

Preheat the oven to 350° F and lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch pan.  In a large bowl, combine the flour, margarine, egg (or egg replacement), 1 cup of Sucanat and vanilla.  Mix well with a pastry blender or hand mixer until it resembles small crumbs.  Press the mixture into the pan.

In a large bowl, toss the apples with the 1/3 cup Sucanat and cinnamon.  In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the margarine and drizzle it over the apple mixture.  Toss until well combined.  Spread the apple mixture evenly over the crust with a spatula.  Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the fruit bubbles.  Cut into bars while still warm.

Makes 1 dozen bars.
