  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, blend the large eggs, pure maple syrup, whole milk, and melted butter until smooth.
  4. Gently add the wet ingredients to the dry mix, stirring until just combined.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in your prepared baking dish.
  6. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
  7. Let the bars cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before transferring them to a wire rack. Mix powdered sugar with a splash of milk for the glaze, then drizzle generously on top.
