Fall will be here before we know it and these Caramel Apple Pie Cookies will make for a comforting dessert. They resemble a mini apple pie and are super delish. Fun and easy too since they use simple store bought ingredients. Whip them up in just a few minutes time.

Caramel Apple Pie Cookies

I have always enjoyed fall. Fall foods are always so comforting. Apple desserts loaded with lots of cinnamon flavor and of course caramels are my favorites.  Last fall, I shared quite a few apple recipes with you like our Dutch Apple Pie and also my favorite CopyCat Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice Cider. I am really enjoying our summer but I am also looking forward to the cool evenings and comforting foods of fall.

I know most of you are not thinking about fall at the moment. Being a food blogger, I like to share my favorite recipes with you before the season actually arrives. This way, you have plenty of great seasonal recipes in mind for when you are ready to start your baking.

Having simple recipes that use store bought convenience items are some of my favorites. Having a recipe that I can whip up after school and have ready in a few minutes time can be nice. Recipes from scratch are always best if I have the time for leisurely baking.

If you are a fan of caramel apple pie, these cookies will quickly become one of your favorites. I used a store bought crust, canned apple pie filling, and my new favorite Smuckers Salted Caramel Topping (this stuff is amazing), plus some cinnamon and sugar. YUMMY! These little hand pie/cookies were so tasty. The cinnamon flavors and caramel were very addicting. I cheated and even drizzled mine with some additional caramel. I think I may have a slight addiction to caramel, ha ha.

Since this recipe only uses a few store bought ingredients, you will find it super simple. I was lazy and did not weave my strips of crust. You can always take the time to weave yours to make them look a bit more attractive. This recipe will be great with Homemade Apple Pie Filling. I am thinking they would be amazing with pumpkin pie filling for fall too!

UPDATE: Many of you have been stating that this recipe is not working for you. When making these cookies they will seem as though they are really messy and not going to work.  Once these are put in the oven and the caramel begins to cook in with the apples, you will have some oozing out. Trust me, they will come out just like my pictures with just a bit of trimming of the cooked caramel apple filling that oozes out.

Yes, there is waste of product in these so if you are afraid of wasting a bit of trimmings, this recipe will not be for you. I really liked how cute they were. Plus these cookies are super tasty so worth a little bit of waste IMO:)

UPDATE: Another blogger has now pointed out that this recipe is very similar to one that she claims to have created that is now “owned by” Pillsbury. I saw this idea all over Pinterest  and decide to make my own. So, this is MY recipe if you would like to call it that. It’s a pie crust with some store bought ingredients, not much of a recipe. But, you can see Pillsbury’s recipe here.

    We love this recipe.
    We leave the pie crust round and after baking we use a pizza cutter and cut between each lattice in one Direction and cut every other lattice on the 90-degree side. It makes perfect rectangle cookies with no mess or wasted product.

    I made these yesterday and everyone loved them! However, everyone stated that they couldn’t taste the caramel. I felt like I put enough caramel on there but the caramel does slide off of the dough when baking? Any suggestions on how to make the caramel more noticeable?

    I made these super cute cookies for coffee hour after church and they disappeared very quickly. (I cut them in half to make them go a bit farther.) I don’t usually like to fuss too much with cookies, so I was a tiny bit hesitant to try them, but they went together like a breeze. Very easy to put together and very tasty. I had very little waste and very minimal oozing–what little was left over, I pushed together into “almost” rounds and baked with the cutout ones–they disappeared just as quickly as the perfect ones. When I make them again, I will make my own butter pie crust. The purchased crust was easy, but I think it leaves a bitter aftertaste. A little more effort, but why not?

    I think I may make them for Thanksgiving dessert. There are always people who don’t want pumpkin pie, but not enough to eat a whole pie. NIce recipe–thanks!

    I did not read all the comments, but I will definitely try this recipe, I love apple pie….
    IF…
    1 – the crust is done not soggy
    2 – sweet apples
    3 – not too much crust
    4 – has a good cinnamon taste
    5 – has some chewy-gooey parts!
    So this recipe seems to have all that!🤗👍👍

    The reason for my comment is this my Mother-in-law used to make an apple roll just to avoid making pie crust. I never got her recipe, wished I had.
    I digress, you spoke that people don’t like the recipe because of the waste. So don’t waste it grease an small pan. Square, round or oblong place it in the pan! Tada! Instant “Carmel Apple Pie Roll!”👍👍💖🤗 All 5 of my requirements for edible Apple Pie!!
    Enjoy no more wasted food! Thanks Jen keep inventing recipes!

    I have a suggestion that might make them a little less messy. Don’t cut them until the whole thing is baked and partially frozen. The will leave nice crisp lines when cut with no oozing of caramel. I work for a hotel in a commercial pastry shop. This is a process we use for most desserts for the nicest looking end product.

    There are lots of recipes being tried with pie crusts and crescent dough. Busy people love short cuts. And most recipes I see are personal preferences or variations of other recipes, so I think it is very unfair for someone to say it is not your recipe. As far as being worried about waste, people can use the leftovers however they want, My grandmother always cooked the extra bits for us kids, who really hated waiting until after dinner for a sweet taste. It is not much waste to begin with. As for making it square shaped or pie shaped, or whatever, you took the time to make them look very appetizing. The look of these cookies sure caught my eye more than a square slab or a flat pie would have. Keep on doing what you enjoy, because it does bring joy, and I must admit, a bit of drool, to most of us.

    Make squares, cover square with caramel, put pie filling on one side, fold over into a triangle, seal with a fork and you now have an apple (or any flavor you want) pop over. No wasted pie crust, filling or caramel. You can even drizzle with powdered sugar glaze and extra caramel.

They are rather rich, so perhaps it might be a good idea to suggest taking it home for later!

    Friends, take your left over dough and do what women did years ago for their little ones as a great. Make sure strips have cinnamon sugar on them, roll up tightly, place on foil or parchment paper. If they are too fat, cut strip in half before rolling. Bake at 350 until nice and brown. Some were called Old Maids – don’t know why. but they make a nice little treat. Enjoy/

    I was a doubter that these would work, but they did! I used the apple pie filling with caramel in it. AND… I used the left over yumminess by putting it all in a loaf pan lined with parchment, drizzling caramel over it, and baking it into an apple pie crumble, perhaps? Then sice and serve with ice cream or whipped cream. Devine and NO WASTE!!! :D Ta-da!

If you put all of that leftover from when you cut out the cookies into a small dish and bake it while baking the cookies, it comes out like a great little mini cobbler that goes perfectly with icecream while still warm! :)

    Due to the extremely sticky and messy nature of these cookies, use parchment paper on your cookie sheet. I did and I’m so glad. The cookies are very tasty but what a sticky mess they are to make, cut, transfer and get off the baking sheet. And so much of the dough/filling goes to waste. I got 17 total cookies out of it. Not totally worth the effort and mess.

    I just made these today. I found them quite time consuming to put together in spite of the shortcuts with pre-made products. I liked the idea of the person who put the caramel and apple on each cookie. I may try that next time. I know now that I probably used too much caramel and apples because they melted all over the cookie sheet and made a mess. I tend to think it will be better with more and that’s not always the case. Live and learn. I did learn a few things and they were good enough that I will try them once more at least.

      As far as time consumption, they turn out great I think. With the caramel, just use a 1/2 teaspoon, then spread on cookie with back of spoon. Pre-cut your lattice pieces and place 4 (make a square, overlapping corners), sprinkle with sugar,nutmeg, cinnamon mix. As it bakes it will not spread, so you can bake them very close together. I do 34 at one baking time (26 minutes at 350). I leave them to cool on pan covered with parchment paper for 3-4 minutes. Transfer to cooling rack.

    Caramel Apple Pie cookies – they are “the bomb!” WOW Having been raised by depressions era parents and a most wonderful baker, “waste not, want not”, I rolled out my bottom dough in a rectangle and cut the cookies in squares.

    Baked them on silpat sheets – – – immediately after removing from oven, I took my flat spatula and smooshed the spreading caramel against each cookie – – – only takes a second and who wants to waste caramel, ha ha ha.

    Great posting and thanks so much for sharing.

    I made this Carmel Apple Pie Cookie recipe and to it to a committee meeting tonight and everyone liked them. I even liked them, so they had to be good! Messy to make, but something different for a change. I got 17 whole circles and a few scraps.
    I used 2 Betty Crocker boxed pie dough mixes. Just made it taste more homemade. Had to bake them longer than the recipe called for.

    How are you cutting these into circles?

      Cookie cutter, Mason Jar lid and paring knife, 3 oz plastic cup turned upside down. All depend what size and how many you want to make. Larger size…fewer cookies. I got about 17 using pint lid.

    These cookies were amazing!

    I didn’t want to throw away the scraps either so i lined a jelly roll pan with parchment paper and laid the scraps on top of it the best i could (in one layer) and just sort of tried to squish everything together.

    I baked it til it was brown, let it cool a bit, cut it into squares and removed it from the parchment. It was great…..and NO waste!!

    They certainly aren’t as pretty as the original cookies, but my family didn’t care!

    Would these keep in Tupperware? Or my guess is that the need to be refrigerated?

    My daughter and I made this recipe over the weekend and I took them to a party! What a hit they were. I love it. Very easy but messy. I think the next time I do this, I will put it on a pizza pan and bake it all and then cut them into bars, Thank you!

      I was thinking of the same thing. Did you try baking it like a pizza and if so, how long did you bake it? Another person write that they cut out the circles first and then put o the caramel and apples; less waste.

    I’m allergic to eggs so I can’t eat a lot of cookies. I believe I could do away with the egg in this recipe, probs sub brushing with milk instead. If you cut them square then there would be no waste.

    If you use a triangular cookie cutter, they resemble a piece of pie AND best of all, you’ll get more cookies and very little scraps left over….

    What do you do with extra dough cut away. After you cut out the circles. How do you capture and use excess?

      That was what I was wondering as well. Putting the toppings on first, you can’t re-roll. I would think there would be some odd shaped cookies here and there, because there’s no way I’d throw that away! Also was wondering about how many this makes.

      Cut into squares rather than circles to eliminate any odd shaped remnants & to use ALL the dough.

      I had no problems balling-up remaining dough to cut-out three more cookies. About 17 in all.

      I have tried these and everyone that loves pie, love these. I use a 21 oz can of apple filling (Had about 1/2 cup left). With the two pie crusts I can get about 17 (mason jar lid size). Also, I cut the “cookie size” out first, then layer with caramel, apple filling, and crust strips. Eggs wash. Drizzle with your sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon. The temp on my stove , set at 350 degrees makes them just fine at about 25-30 minutes. I made mine for a style show, babyshower, and just because. Going to try cherry and peach next!
