Autumn Apple Pie Cookies

Good apple pies are a considerable part

of our domestic happiness.

- Jane Austen -

Apples remind me of the joys of autumn and these tasty apple pie cookies 

are the perfect way to welcome the days of sweet fall.

Here is the recipe, my friends. . .

Ingredients:

2 pie crusts

caramel topping

10 oz apple pie filling {store bought or make your own}

milk

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 cup sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Spray a cookie sheet with nonstick spray and set aside.

Sprinkle some flour on the counter

and roll out the pie crusts

{you can use store bought pie crusts for a quicker cookie}

Spread a thin layer of caramel onto one crust.

Chop apples to make them smaller

and spread over the caramel.

Cut 1/2-inch strips out of the other crust

and use them to make a lattice; 

place the strips on top of the apples.

Using a round cookie cutter

cut out circles and place on the prepared cookie sheet.

Brush the tops with a bit of milk.

Combine the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar

and sprinkle on top of the cookies.

Bake 25 - 35 minutes

or until golden brown.

These apple pie cookies taste incredible hot out of the oven.

The cookies can be stored in the refrigerator,

but I will mention that they tend to get soggy after only a couple of days in the fridge

due to the caramel and the juice from the apples.

Brew yourself some coffee

or make yourself a cup of hot tea

and simply enjoy the taste of autumn :)

Enjoy, dear friends.

Hugs and blessings to you!
