If they are anything like my monsters, the apple bars won’t last until morning. There are times that I stash one to be sure I have one to enjoy with my morning coffee. The joys of being a mom!!!

They really are delicious! Thanks for allowing me to share!
What is tapioca? Where do I get it and is there a substitute or an alternate that can be used? They look awesome awesome nd I would like to try them.
Tapioca is a thickener. I am not aware of a close substitute. It is located right by the pudding. Good luck and I hope you love them as much as we do!
Can’t wait to try these! They look just like the apple bars my mom made! I’ve been looking for this recipe! Yay!
I am so glad I could help! This recipe was passed from generation to generation in our family as well, and we love them!
Thank you so much for featuring my Homemade Apple Bars! As a new blogger, I am so grateful for this opportunity! I will continue to visit your link parties and check out all your awesome creations! Thanks again!
