OATMEAL APPLE PIE COOKIES



Oatmeal Apple Pie Cookies image

Perfectly soft and chewy little apple pie tart-like cookies with oatmeal! These little guys took first place at my work cookie contest, so I guess they're pretty good!

Provided by Amy Loveless

Time 2h

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon apple pie spice
3 cups quick-cooking oats
½ cup chopped walnuts
2 large apples - peeled, cored, and diced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large egg whites
¼ cup caramel sundae syrup (such as Smucker's®)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 cups powdered sugar, or more to taste
1 tablespoon milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Beat butter, sugar, and brown sugar for cookie dough in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Stir in eggs and vanilla.
  • Combine flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and apple pie spice in a separate bowl. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients until incorporated. Mix in oats and walnuts. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Set out two 24-cup mini muffin tins. Place paper towels under 2 wire racks.
  • Combine apples, butter, sugar, and cinnamon for filling in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring halfway through to distribute the butter, until apples have softened. Transfer to a strainer to drain and cool.
  • Roll chilled dough into walnut-sized balls. Fill each muffin cup with a ball and press down to flatten slightly.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove and cool for 2 minutes. Press a shot glass down in the middle of each cookie to form it into a cup shape. Transfer from the pan to the prepared wire racks to cool.
  • Put apple filling into the center of each cookie, making sure it's evenly distributed to fill all cookies.
  • Beat egg whites for icing in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Mix in caramel syrup, cinnamon, and cream of tartar. Gradually mix in 2 cups powdered sugar and mix until it reaches a good drizzling consistency, similar to that of the caramel syrup. Add more powdered sugar if necessary; you don't want it to be so thin that it will run.
  • Drizzle icing over the cookies; it's okay if it melts into the apple filling.
  • Enjoy right away while they're super fresh, or wait until icing hardens, about 3 hours.

Tips:

  • Use ripe apples: For the best flavor and texture, use ripe, crisp apples. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
  • Peel and core the apples: Before grating the apples, be sure to peel and core them. This will help to ensure that the cookies have a smooth texture.
  • Grate the apples: The easiest way to grate the apples is to use a box grater. You can also use a food processor fitted with the grating blade.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking will help the cookies to hold their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown: The cookies are done baking when they are golden brown around the edges and the tops are set.

Conclusion:

These apple-filled oatmeal cookies are a delicious and healthy snack or treat. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Try adding different spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger, or different nuts, such as walnuts, pecans, or almonds. You can also drizzle the cookies with melted chocolate or caramel sauce for an extra special treat.
