Apple Walnut Cookies

Apple Walnut Cookies

The other day I stopped at our local packing house to buy some apples for my kids.

Their prices are so good that I always buy more then we can eat....Don't worry no food is wasted in my house.

I love baking with apples and pears so whatever we don't eat goes into baking.

Since I had an abundance of apples I decided to make Apple Walnut Cookies.....delicious cookies I haven't baked since last year apple harvest.

The Apple Walnut cookies are so tasty and soft. Bursting with apples and walnuts, smelling of cinnamon. Few minutes after I put them in the oven the whole house smells heavenly.


The first batch is usually gone as soon as I put them on the cooling rack....the rest I must hide so there is something left for the next day.

  • 2 cups of Flour

Thanks for linking up today! These look very good. I am assuming I could make them w/out the nuts, right? I have a little guy who has an aversion to nuts, but the rest of us love them!!
