    I'm back! Forgive me, I decided that I needed to take the summer off from blogging and just enjoy life with my three kiddos! However, I realized how much I missed it! My comeback to blogging will start with spiced apple cider oatmeal cookies.

    These cookies are filled with all the flavors of fall and really take the gold star when it comes to cookies. A soft, chewy, oatmeal cookie with sweet and spicy apple flavors. Eat at breakfast or any time of the day!

    From my previous posts, you can all see that I am not the biggest pumpkin fan, so anything spiced or apple cider will always trump pumpkin flavored desserts. And since we haven't even made it to the apple orchard this year to get the amazing apple cider donuts, I figured I would make these spiced apple cider oatmeal cookies!

    Please also enjoy my other apple flavored desserts fresh apple scones with cinnamon glaze, apple cinnamon muffins, and cinnamon apple amish bread.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I keep these oatmeal cookies moist?

    The trick is to bake them at a lower temperature until just set. A higher temperature tends to dry them out.

    Can I use quick oats in this recipe?

    No, quick oats change the texture of the cookie completely and it won't be as soft.

    About me Carrie Blaser

    Hi my name is Carrie. I am just a sassy girl from the midwest that has a sweet tooth for any type of dessert. I grew up in the kitchen and remember making my sister scrambled eggs at 8 years old. But I really fell in love with baking when I made my first Betty Crocker cake out of the box. I like to think that I have come a long way since then!
