Apples are fruits that combine very well with cinnamon, that is why I have chosen cinnamon to be the spice that flavor these cookies. You rarely see cookies made with fresh fruits, but I have found them to be very delicious and also very nutritious. These cookies are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
It is nice to feel the pieces of fruit in each bite. I not only make them with apples, but also with peaches, pears, strawberries, blackberries, figs, and pineapples. Today I am using apples, but it is important to use the green ones as they are more citric than the red ones, and they also have more flavor.
I don't cook fruits, I use them raw but cut in small pieces. I usually serve them with icing sugar, but today I will bathe them with cinnamon. You can freeze them by putting them in a ciploc bag and they can last for months if the children allow it.
