Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten
• 2 cups apples - peeled, cored and chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup white sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup melted butter

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place an 8- or 9-inch cast iron skillet into the oven to preheat.

Step 2

Whisk together flour, white sugar, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl; set aside.

Step 3

Beat together eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Toss apples and pecans in the flour mixture, then stir into the egg mixture until combined. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in the preheated skillet, swirling to coat the pan.

Step 4

Pour the batter into the hot pan, and replace into the oven. Bake until the sides are dry and a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownie comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool in the skillet for 20 minutes before removing and slicing.
