There’s nothing I love more on a cold, fall weekend than baking something delicious and making the house smell like cozy, cinnamon, maple goodness. Ya know what I mean? I want all the cozy feels!
The downside to this is that more often than not, I end up eating everything I bake. I’ll be the first to admit that I have self-control issues when it comes to sugar (can’t even have it in the house, y’all)! Sadly, most baked fall goods are not the healthiest. But these Cinnamon Apple Pie Cookies are a healthy fall treat of their own kind!
First thing I love about these: Melt-in-your-mouth, soft, sweet, warm, everything fall in a cookie! I even taste tested them on non-healthy food eaters. They loved them!
Second thing I love about these: I throw everything in the blender (I love love love my Ninja Mega Food Processor – it has a dough setting that’s so great!), place them on a baking sheet, and bake away. Done in under 30 minutes, y’all!
And I have even more good news, friend. There’s also a Chocolate Cherry Cookie version of these Cinnamon Apple Pie Cookies! We also have delicious Gingerbread Cookies (OMG SO GOOD) here on Jar Of Lemons, but I’m holding back on the Christmas vibes until just the right time. It’s a struggle, y’all! You know how I feel about these holidays!
Alright, friends. Let’s make these delicious Cinnamon Apple Pie Cookies!
Here’s the easy recipe:

YUM! Gotta love a healthy cookie recipe!
Definitely, Michelle! 🙂
Oh my goodness – this weekend I spent the entire time baking because it was so gloomy. Then of course… I had no self control and ate way too many treats. I’ll definitely need to try these cookies next weekend and hopefully not have a sugar coma. Pinned!
Haha, been there SO many times! That’s exactly why I created this recipe. Enjoy! 🙂
I’m a huge fan of anything that I can whip up in my food processor. Great idea! Will have to give these a try.
Me too, Tania! The easier, the better 🙂 Enjoy!
What a delicious combo!
Thank you, Melanie! 🙂
I love an interesting cookie! You can’t go wrong with apples!
Girl, me too! Haha definitely! 🙂
These look so good – and who doesn’t love apple pie? I would never have thought to make it into cookies. Yum!
Thank you, Kristyn! 🙂
You had me at apple pie cookies. These sound delicious.
Haha! Thank you, Jacqui! 🙂
This looks so yummy! I love apples!!! Thanks for this:)
Thank you, Tina! 🙂
Question: These look absolutely perfect, especially without sugar. Unfortunately I am allergic to coconut oil. Was wondering if you knew of a substitute?
Thanks, Pam! I would maybe canola or maybe even sunflower oil. You could also use butter if you’re not allergic to dairy! I hope you enjoy the recipe!
Yum! I’m pinning these for sure 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
