Apple Crisp Cookies
Apple Crisp Cookies combine tender pie crust circles filled with a warm apple cinnamon filling and topped with a crumbly oat and brown sugar crisp. The cookies bake to golden perfection with softened apples inside and a textured, buttery topping, offering a handheld way to enjoy apple crisp flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 pie crust , (you can make half that recipe)
- 5 apple peeled and diced, Granny Smith variety
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar , packed
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2/3 cup rolled oats , (not instant)
- 10 tablespoons butter diced, cold unsalted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Add baking spray or grease regular muffin tin (you'll use it twice or spray two muffin tins).
- Cut 24 two inch circles out of your pie crust.
- If you need to, gather your scraps and re-roll them to 1/4 inch thickness.
- Add the pie crust to the muffin tins.
- In a small saucepan add the apples, sugar, cinnamon, lemon juice and cornstarch.
- Cook for 5-7 minutesuntil the apples are softened and thickened.
- To make the crisp topping, add the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, salt, oats and butter to a bowl and combine with either a hand mixer or pastry cutter.
- Add one tablespoon of apple filling to each muffin well.
- Add two tablespoons of the crumble topping on top.
- I give the tops a quick spray with canola oil, but it is totally up to you. I find it helps hold the topping together.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes.
- Let cool completely before carefully removing.
