These Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Cookies scream FALL with the delicious combination of fresh apples, oatmeal, and spiced cinnamon.
With Fall right around the corner, apple recipes will be in full force soon — which, of course, is never a bad thing! I love everything about fall and these made-from-scratch Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Cookies are the icing on the cake!
It took me awhile to find the perfect apple cinnamon oatmeal cookies recipe… and now that I found it, I just can’t stop baking them. It’s not even officially fall yet and I’ve already made two batches!
These scrumptious cookies are like breakfast and dessert rolled into one! Since these cookies are homemade, I don’t feel too guilty about having one or two for breakfast with my morning coffee. They’re even a great as an after-school snack for the kids, and obviously make a fantastic dessert, too! I could totally see a scoop of vanilla ice cream piled high on top of a warm cookie fresh out of the oven. Mmmmm … who doesn’t love cinnamon apple oatmeal cookies for fall!?
