Description

Enjoy these chewy Apple Snickerdoodles, a delightful twist on a classic cookie. They are infused with the sweet flavor of apples and warm cinnamon, perfect for any occasion. This recipe will guide you to create soft, flavorful, and irresistible homemade apple snickerdoodle cookies.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup finely chopped fresh apples
  • For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for achieving chewy apple snickerdoodles.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix the dough for your apple cinnamon snickerdoodle cookies.
  6. Gently fold in the finely chopped fresh apples. This is what gives these apple snickerdoodles their unique fruity flavor.
  7. In a small bowl, combine the 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon for the topping.
  8. Roll rounded tablespoons of dough into balls, then roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Place the coated dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. These are your soon-to-be chewy cinnamon apple snickerdoodles.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft. The key to soft apple snickerdoodle cookies is not to overbake them.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious homemade apple snickerdoodle cookies!

Notes

  • For extra chewy apple snickerdoodles, use a mix of apple varieties like Honeycrisp and Gala.
  • Ensure apples are finely chopped so they distribute evenly in the cookie dough.
  • You can add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the cinnamon sugar topping for extra spice.
