Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a baking tray with parchment. Grate the apple and thoroughly squeeze out the juice.

Tip: Apple juice is acidic and watery, which would alter the dough proportions if left in.
2 ✓

Mix the dry ingredients: flour, oats, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

Tip: The fibres in the oats absorb moisture during baking, making the cookie structure more stable [Water absorption].
3 ✓

Cream the butter with the sugars, then add the egg. Stir in the grated apple.

Tip: The egg yolk acts as an emulsifier: it helps bind the butter with the water content of the dough [Lecithin].
4 ✓

Combine with the dry mixture. With damp hands, form balls and flatten them on the baking tray.

Tip: The dough might be sticky; water on your hands prevents sticking.
5 ✓

Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.

Tip: Don't wait for them to bake rock hard in the oven, as they will firm up while cooling.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the cookies become too soft/mushy?
You likely didn't squeeze the liquid out of the apples enough, and the excess juice made the dough soggy.
