Ingredients

Scale

1 cup unsalted butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 and 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups chopped fresh apples (like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until golden brown and nutty-smelling (about 5 minutes). Let it cool slightly.
In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add the cooled brown butter and whisk in the eggs until smooth.
In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Gently fold in the chopped apples.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown on top and a toothpick comes out clean.
