Apple Crisp Cookie Cups

Apple Crisp Cookie Cups!!!

It has been a while since I baked something new and I found this recipe

on Pinterest.

( Apple Crisp Cookie Cups )

I get scared sometimes, making something new.

But the recipe was so easy to follow.

So I figure I should link the original recipe.

So happy I found the recipe.

I still have so many apples at home from our Apple Orchard trip.

This is a perfect recipe to use it for.

Oatmeal Cookie Cups:

• Turn mixer to low and add flour mixture, mix until combined. Add oats and mix until just combined.
• Spray 2 regular sized muffin tins with cooking spray. Using a large cookie scoop (3 Tbsp) scoop dough into muffin tins, press down and push up the sides to create cups.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake cookie cups for approx. 15mins or until browned and mostly set.
• Remove from oven and (if needed) immediately use a small jar or container to press firmly down in the center to create a well. Cool in pans for 15mins, then place on wire rack to cool completely.
