APPLE SPICE COOKIES

Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 10 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon apple pie spice
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 to 2 small apples, cored and cut into thin rounds (about 1/8-inch thick)
1/4 cup gold sanding sugar or coarse sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Place the butter and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat until combined, about 2 minutes. Add the maple syrup, vanilla and egg. Beat on medium speed until homogenous, about 1 minute more.
  • Whisk together the flour, apple pie spice, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Pour half of the dry ingredients into the butter mixture and beat on low speed until combined. Repeat with the remaining dry ingredients until a loose, wet dough comes together. Allow the dough to rest for about 10 minutes in the refrigerator; it will thicken slightly as the flour becomes hydrated.
  • Using a 3-tablespoon size scoop, make large mounds of dough on the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 3 inches of space between each cookie. Place an apple ring on top of each mound and press gently down to secure. Generously sprinkle each apple slice with sanding sugar.
  • Bake the cookies until deeply golden brown, about 15 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through the baking time. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before moving to a wire rack.

Time 45m

Yield 40 cookies, 40 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/4 cups flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar, packed
2 eggs
1/4 cup apple juice
1 large apple (peeled, cored and diced)
1 cup pecans, toasted and chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375F; grease 2 cookie sheets.
  • Sift together flour, cinnamon, baking soda and nutmeg; set aside.
  • Beat the butter and brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer at high speed until well blended.
  • Beat in the eggs and apple juice.
  • Gradually add the flour to the butter mixture, beating at low speed until well blended.
  • Stir in the apple and pecans.
  • Drop the dough by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake for 13 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Cool on wire rack.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. Granny Smith apples are a classic choice for apple pie because they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that complements the sweet filling.
  • Peel and core the apples thinly. This will help the apples to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the apples. This will help to prevent the apples from bruising and will also make it easier to get even slices.
  • Don't overcrowd the apples in the pie crust. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will also make the pie soggy.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to create a crispy crust and will also help to prevent the apples from becoming mushy.
  • Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for the remaining baking time. This will help to prevent the pie from overcooking.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set and will also make the pie easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Apple pie is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, sweet filling, and warm spices, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. These tips will help you make the perfect apple pie every time. Remember that the type of apple, the thickness of the slices, and the baking temperature can affect the final outcome of your apple pie. Experiment with different varieties of apples and adjust the baking time according to your oven to find the perfect combination that suits your taste. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner, these tips will help you create a delicious and memorable apple pie that will be enjoyed by all.
