You can probably tell that fall is one of my favorite times of year by my recent postings {hello Pumpkin Streusel Dessert Pizza!} Pumpkin, apples and cinnamon are the ultimate fall flavors and I’m all about fall desserts. There’s nothing better than cooking soup in the slow cooker and having a pumpkin or apple dessert on a chilly, fall night.
This Apple Crisp combines the delicious cinnamon-and-sugary snickerdoodle cookie with the perfect in-season fruit right now: apples.
Unfortunately we didn’t get any apples this year on our apple trees since they were just planted, but I’m hoping for next year.
This recipe is easy. You can use your favorite snickerdoodle cookie recipe, or mine below.
I must say, this is the best snickerdoodle recipe though. You might want to try it.
Feel free to use whatever apples you prefer. I used granny smith and gala.
All you do is plop that snickerdoodle dough wherever you’d like. You can do small drops or layer the whole pan with the dough. Sprinkle with a bit of cinnamon and sugar and bake at 350 for 40 minutes. Whatever you do, serve this WARM!

Looks delicious! Perfect recipe to make after apple picking. Thanks for sharing!
That looks so delicious. I have been growing apples on some land I own out in the country, since 2001. Everyone wants to know when they are ready and I always give most of them away because they produce way more than we can eat. I’ve always said I wanted to try a recipe like this but I haven’t yet. I need to. I do make apple pie jelly, apple pies and apple dumplings quite often though. I’m going to bookmark your recipe and try it this year. Thanks for sharing.
Ooo yummie! Will definitely give this recipe a try :))
Pinned this for later this week! We are headed apple picking in the next couple days…nice timing!
