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
  • 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!
