These delicious oatmeal cookies taste just like apple pie! Made with fresh apple, brown sugar and cinnamon, this simple cookie recipe is perfect for the fall. Simple and easy to make and hands down delicious!
Pre-heat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, add melted coconut oil, brown sugar and vanilla extract. Stir until combined. Add egg, and stir again.
In another bowl, mix the flour with cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until combined.
Add rolled oats and oat flour, stir to combine.
Finally, add diced apple and stir to incorporate.
Spoon the dough into 12-14 cookies, leaving two inches in between
Bake the cookies for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden on the edges.
Let the cookies cool down before transferring them.
NOTES
A quick tip: oat flour can be easily made by blending rolled oats for two minutes.
To make cookies vegan, use a flax egg: Prepare the flaxseed egg by mixing 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for ten minutes.
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days in your pantry or the freezer for up to two months.
For this recipe, I used rolled oats to get a crunchier bite. You could use quick oats, too; the result will be softer cookies.
A great recipe for meal prep or as a handy school or work lunch.
