How to Make Apple Nut Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and chopped Macintosh apples (or your favorite sweet apple) and 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
