Healthy Apple Pie Cookies

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Fall-Appropriate Cookie Recipe is Free of Butter, Oil and Flour

— October 29, 2015 — Lifestyle
These honey cinnamon glazed apple pie cookies are a healthier and bite-sized version of a classic American dessert. Created by the blog Savory Nothings, the apple dessert recipe is so good, you could probably eat the entire cookie batch in one sitting. The fall treats are made without any butter, oil or flour, which also makes them ideal for folks with food allergies or dietary restrictions.

You can use either blanched or raw almonds in the soft apple pie cookies, depending on how earthy of a flavor you like. If you don't have store-bought apple pie spice on hand, you can combine ground cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom instead. While the glaze is optional, it really takes the cookie to a new (and delicious) level. It does become quite hard after it sets, however, making them less great for toddlers.
Trend Themes
1. Healthier Desserts - Creating healthier versions of classic desserts that are free of common allergens and dietary restrictions.
2. Alternative Ingredients - Experimenting with alternative ingredients such as almonds and homemade spice blends to create unique flavors.
3. Bite-sized Treats - Creating bite-sized versions of traditional desserts for convenient and portion-controlled indulgence.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - Opportunities for businesses to develop and market healthier dessert options to cater to health-conscious and allergy-prone consumers.
2. Alternative Ingredients - Opportunities for companies to produce and market alternative ingredients as substitutes for traditional components in dessert recipes.
3. Bakery and Snack Foods - Opportunities for bakeries and snack food manufacturers to tap into the demand for bite-sized, healthier indulgences.
