Instructions

1
|
In a medium bowl combine the flour and salt.
2
|
Cut the cold butter into cubes and toss in the flour. Using your fingers, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until pea sized pieces are left.
3
|
Add a couple tablespoons of water, then toss with your hands to combine.
4
|
Continue adding very small amounts of water until the dough can hold together, but is not overly wet.
5
|
Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap, then chill for one hour.
6
|
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out into a rough rectangle, fold in half, then again into quarters. Repeat one more time.
7
|
Shape the dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and chill for at least one hour before using.
8
|
Preheat the oven 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
9
|
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to ⅛” in thickness. Use small leaf cutters to cut out the dough.
10
|
Freeze the cutout dough for 10 minutes.
11
|
Place frozen cutout dough on the prepared baking sheet, and brush with an egg wash and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
12
|
Bake the pie crust leaves for 10 minutes until slightly golden.
13
|
In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking powder, spices, and salt. Set aside.
14
|
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugars for 2-3 minutes until light & fluffy.
15
|
Beat in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.
16
|
Scrape down the bowl, then add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
17
|
Fold in the apple pieces with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
18
|
Using a 3 tablespoon cookie scoop, portion the dough onto a small parchment lined baking sheet. Top each with one apple piece, then freeze for 30 minutes.
19
|
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
20
|
Place the frozen cookie dough balls on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12 minutes until barely golden on the edges. They will appear underbaked, but will continue to bake as they cool on the baking sheet.
21
|
Once the cookies come out of the oven, immediately top each of them with a pie crust leaf.
22
|
Allow to cool completely on the baking sheet, and enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Pre-Dry Your Apples 🍎
    After dicing Honeycrisp apples, pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels and toss with a pinch of flour to absorb excess moisture, preventing soggy cookies and ensuring a cobbler-like texture.
  • Bloom Your Spices 🌶️
    Combine cloves, nutmeg, allspice, and cinnamon in a small bowl and let them sit for 5 minutes before adding to your dough to intensify their warm flavors throughout the cookie.
  • Chill Dough Strategically ❄️
    Refrigerate your cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent the cookies from spreading too thin and losing their structural integrity around the apple filling.
  • Master the Vanilla Bean Paste 🫘
    Whisk vanilla bean paste into your wet ingredients first to distribute the flecks evenly, creating visual appeal and consistent vanilla flavor in every bite.
  • Egg Wash for Superior Crunch 🥚
    Apply egg wash just before baking and immediately sprinkle turbinado sugar for a jewel-like, crunchy exterior that contrasts beautifully with the soft, spiced interior.
