  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: Approximately 12 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large honeycrisp apple
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • 1 1/2 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the apple filling by mixing water and cornstarch in a saucepan over medium heat. Add chopped apples, brown sugar, vegan butter, lemon juice, and pumpkin pie spice. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until apples soften. Cool.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together vegan butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy. Add the flax egg and vanilla extract; mix well.
  3. In another bowl, whisk flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until combined.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop two tablespoons of dough, flatten it in your hand, place one tablespoon of cooled apple filling in the center, fold edges over, and roll into a ball. Roll in extra sugar before placing on a lined baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack.
