Soft Apple Oatmeal Cookies Recipe

Brown sugar and dried apples are used to make these brittle, soft oatmeal cookies. Every cookie has just the right amount of fall flavors.  

– 1 1/2 cups (200 g) all-purpose flour – 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon – 1/2 teaspoon baking soda – 1/2 baking powder – 1 teaspoon fine sea salt – 2 sticks (225 g) unsalted butter, softened – 1 tablespoon honey – 1 cup (160 g) packed light brown sugar – 1/2 cup (125 g) white granulated sugar – 2 large egg – 1 teaspoon vanilla extract – 1 1/2 cups (165 g) old-fashioned oat – 1 1/2 cups (100 g) chopped dehydrated (dried) apple

INGREDIENTS

Make dough: Mix flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium basin. Set aside. 

INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1

Beat butter and honey in another large dish until creamy. Beat in both sugars for 2-3 minutes until frothy. Mix vanilla after beating eggs one at a time.   

STEP 2

Scrape bowl sides. Just blend the flour mixture on low speed. Oats and apples should be folded in two batches to ensure fair distribution. Cover the bowl with foil and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes.   

STEP 3

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Parchment a baking sheet. Use a cookie scoop to place 2 tablespoons of cookies on your baking sheet 2 inches (5 cm) apart.  

STEP 4

Bake cookies in the middle of the oven for 13-15 minutes until rims are crisp but center is soft. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for 20 minutes before plating.  

STEP 5

Repeat with remaining dough. Place cookies on a 9x13 baking sheet, one on top of the other, and chill in the fridge for optimal results.   

STEP 6

This lets you bake as many as fit on a baking sheet while the rest chill in the fridge. Cover remaining cookies at room temperature and eat within 4 days.
