Delicious Apple Crisp Cookie Cups that combine the flavors of apple crisp and cookies in a delightful treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup peeled and diced apples (about 1 medium apple)
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for topping)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the rolled oats, ground cinnamon, diced apples, and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed.
- Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the cookie dough into each muffin cup, pressing it down slightly to form a cup shape.
- In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the topping. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cookie cups.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the tops are set.
- Allow the cookie cups to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a caramel twist, drizzle some caramel sauce over the cooled cookie cups before serving.
- Substitute the apples with pears or peaches for a different fruity flavor.
