Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.

- Fold in the diced apples.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- While the blondies are baking, prepare the cinnamon glaze by mixing powdered sugar, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Once the blondies are cool, drizzle the glaze over the top and cut into squares to serve.
