Ingredients

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon apple pie spice
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped apple about 1 small to medium apple (no need to peel it)
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, apple pie spice, baking soda, salt, and oats in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a standing mixer, add the room-temperature butter and both sugars. Using the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar for 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat for an additional minute, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in the standing mixer. Mix on medium speed until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the apples and cinnamon chips until evenly distributed.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop (1.5 tablespoons), scoop the dough balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving room between the balls. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the tops of the cookies are set. Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 to 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
