Oatmeal Apple Cookies Recipe • A Tasty Treat! | Club Foody

 

September is a busy month for many folks. Summer is on its way out and most people are back to work including the little ones who returned to school for another year. This is also the month to get ready to close the cottage and/or store the patio furniture. If you grew a garden this summer, you’ll be busy harvesting it which more than likely means you’ll end up canning your fruits and vegetables.
 
September also means “apples” to me… I know I can buy them all year round but I make an excuse to visit my local orchards. Of course I buy a lot so I can make my favorite apple recipes like Apple Cheese Soufflés, Apple Betty, Apple Butter, Apple Crisp, Apple Cheese Pie, Apple Strudel, Oliebollen, Stuffed Pork Tenderloin and many others including this featured one… my Oatmeal Apple Cookies!
 
Crispy on the outside and tender inside, these are a delicious snack to enjoy mid-afternoon, after school, for dessert or simply anytime you crave them! This is an easy recipe and to intensify the flavor, I add some of my Homemade Apple Sauce in the batter… yummy!
 
To get the best results making these tasty Oatmeal Apple Cookies, here are a few points I’d like to highlight…
– I use rolled oats also known as old-fashioned oats for my cookies – DO NOT use quick oats or instant oats… they’re not the right ingredient for this recipe.
– Like any other ingredients in your kitchen, baking powder and baking soda also have an expiration date so make sure they’re still usable.
– DO NOT overmix the dough. As soon as the dry ingredients are blended, stop.
– Cover the dough with wax paper to prevent it from drying out and chill it for 24 hours and up to 2 days. Chilling the dough is important for a couple things; your cookies won’t spread as much when baking in the oven plus the texture will be perfect… crunchy on the outside and soft inside.
– Darker baking sheets will cook the cookies faster. If using them, decrease the oven temperature by 25ºF. Depending on your oven, you might want to check them 2 to 4 minutes prior to when the baking time is over.
– Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet.
– Use parchment paper or a silicone mat. NEVER and I repeat NEVER use butter otherwise the bottom will burn. Another alternative is to use cooking spray instead.
– Don’t be a cat and let your cookies bake without opening the oven door. I know it’s tempting but resist doing it because each time that door opens, you’re cooling off the oven drastically.
 
Every September, I like baking these tasty Oatmeal Apple Cookies! They’re easy to make and certainly a great recipe to have on hand! With all these tips, you’re now ready to make and enjoy them this fall…
Bon Appétit!
