These cute Apple Pie Cookies are the perfect sized fall treat to get you and your kids excited about autumn treats! The light cinnamon apple filling tastes just like fall.
It’s officially fall and we’re ready for cooler weather and cozy apple treats like these Apple Pie Cookies.
They look just like mini apple pies, but are actually baked like cookies! How perfect are these when you want an apple fall treat but don’t want to over-indulge by having a big piece of pie.
These pie cookies are a small enough dessert for your kids that are not too sweet. If you want, you could even add a tiny dollop of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. But we think they taste great just the way they are.
Apple pie cookies are also way easier than making a pie! We used store bought crust here and the pie filling is as easy as well…apple pie 😛
All you need is apple fruit and a couple of more simple ingredients like cinnamon sugar and butter.
Apple Pie Cookies – Ingredients:
2 Rolls of ready made, refrigerated pie dough
2 Medium apples
2 Tbsp cinnamon sugar (to make combine 1/4 cup white sugar with 1 tbsp cinnamon. Reserve in airtight container the remainder.)
2 Tbsp butter
1 Tsp corn starch
