Pie Crust: This recipe starts with premade pie dough — although you could definitely make your pie crust from scratch if you’d like.

How to Make THIS Apple Pie Cookies RECIPE

STEP ONE: Place the apple pie filling onto a cutting board and cut the apples into smaller, bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

STEP TWO: Place a silicone baking sheet onto a cookie sheet. Roll out one of the pie crusts onto the silicone sheet. A rolling pin can be used to lightly flatten out the dough if needed.

STEP THREE: Spread the salted caramel sauce from edge to edge on the pie crust dough. Top with the chopped apple pie filling and spread edge to edge. Set aside.

STEP FOUR: On a cutting board roll out the second piece of pie crust. A rolling pin can be used to lightly flatten out the dough if needed.

PRO TIP: I chose to do a lattice crust for the top layer of pie crust. You can keep it simple and do a regular crust on top if you’d rather.

STEP FIVE: Using a pizza cutter and a ruler slice the dough into ¼ inch strips (or eyeball it!). Using these strips do a lattice crust on top of the apple pie filling crust. OR you can just lay some strips vertical and then horizontal if latticework is not your thing!

STEP SIX: Using a 2 ¾” circle cutter cut out the cookies leaving a little space in between them. Remove the extra dough from around the cookies and just leave the cookies in place on the silicone baking sheet to bake.

PRO TIP: You can place all the extra dough and pie filling into a small, greased pie pan and make a mini pie!

STEP SEVEN: Brush cookies with egg wash. Mix cinnamon, sugar, and nutmeg together and sprinkle on over the cookies.

STEP EIGHT: Place cookie sheet into the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

PRO TIP: A drizzle of caramel on top before serving complete this amazing goody.

You might have seen these apple pie cookies floating around Pinterest and thought they looked yummy but a little intimidating to make. I was the same — they looked so good but I was nervous to try them.

I won’t lie — they are a little labor-intensive. But the results are so worth it! You’ll love the flavor. Bubbly, gooey, and warm fresh-baked from the oven, it’s hard to beat the sweet, luscious flavor.

I’m sure you’ll enjoy these flaky, delicious apple pie cookies — the warm filling and sweet caramel make for a luscious dessert you’ll love!
