Easy Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Cookies
These easy cinnamon apple oatmeal cookies are a soft, tender treat. They are easy for little ones to pick up and take bites from and can be served as a breakfast or a snack!
Servings: 15 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- ½ cup unsweetenend applesauce
- 2 tbsp natural peanut butter
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 medium apple, grated
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
- Whisk together the applesauce, maple syrup, and peanut butter in a bowl until smooth.
- Add in the oats and cinnamon and mix until well combined.
- Grate the apple using a box grater. I used the largest size hole on the grater. You may also chop the apples into small pieces!
- Fold the grated apple into the mixture until combined.
- Scoop out heaping tablespoon-sized portions and place them on a parchment paper lined pan. Press down on the cookies to flatten them. Make sure to flatten and shape the cookies beforehand because they will not change shape while baking.
- Bake the cookies at 350 degrees F for 10 - 12 minutes. Let them cool completely before serving.
Notes
- These cookies are soft and chewy. Their soft texture makes them great for baby-led weaning and toddlers!
- I like to use Fuji apples in baking recipes. They are naturally sweet and have a nice crunch to them.
- Make sure to flatten and shape the cookies beforehand because they will not change shape while baking.
- Feel free to omit the maple syrup for a younger baby, the cookies just won’t be as sweet but will still have some slight sweetness from the applesauce and apple!
