🍏🍪 Cinnamon Apple Snickerdoodle Cookies 🍪🍏

These chewy cookies combine the classic snickerdoodle flavor with cinnamon-spiced apples for a delightful twist.

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon cream of tartar

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup diced apples (peeled and small diced)

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

Preheat the Oven:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Mix Dry Ingredients:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, salt, and cinnamon.

Cream Butter and Sugars:

In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.

Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in the diced apples.

Shape Cookies:

In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon for the coating. Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and roll into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture.

Bake:

Place the coated cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.

Cool and Serve:

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
