Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (243 g) apple pie filling
- homemade or canned
- finely chopped
- divided
- 1 cup (2 sticks / 227 g) unsalted butter
- softened
- 1 ½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs

- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 ¾ cups (352 g) all-purpose flour

- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in ¾ cup of the finely chopped apple pie filling to the cookie dough.
- In a small bowl, mix 3 tablespoons of sugar with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon to create cinnamon sugar.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough, roll them into balls, and roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
