Ingredients

  

For the cookies:

• ½ cup non-dairy butter melted
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¾ cup sugar
• 1 ¼ cup gluten-free flour
• 1 teaspoon tapioca flour
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ⅛ teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon apple pie spice

For the cheesecake filling:

• 4 oz. non-dairy cream cheese
• ¾ cup powdered sugar

For the apple pie filling:

• 3 medium apples diced
• 3 tablespoon maple syrup
• 3 tablespoon water
• 2 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon apple pie spice
• 1 teaspoon tapioca flour

Method

 

1. Preheat oven to 375℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, mix together all of your cookie ingredients until you have a smooth dough. Scoop the dough into cookies about 1 ½ tablespoon in size and place on your prepared baking sheet.
3. Bake the cookies for about 9-10 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes, then using a tablespoon, make an indentation in the center of each cookie to hold the cream cheese filling. Let the cookies continue to cool while you make the other fillings.
4. In a stand mixer, combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar until you have a smooth consistency. Feel free to taste as you go to make sure it is sweet enough for your liking. Spoon this mixture evenly onto the cookies.
5. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, cook the apples and water until they begin to soften. Once the apples are pretty soft, mix in the rest of the ingredients until you have a nice apple pie filling consistency.
6. Spoon the apple pie filling evenly on top of the cream cheese filling and enjoy!
