# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Spritz the baking tray with nonstick. Warm up your oven to 200°C.
02 -
Stir up flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl so it all blends together.
03 -
Mix melted butter with sugar in a big bowl. Crack in the egg and mix it in. Add applesauce and vanilla, keep mixing till you’ve got a smooth mix.
04 -
Pour the dry mixture into the wet. Stir until just combined, then gently stir in the diced apples so they’re spread through.
05 -
Drop tablespoon-sized scoops onto your sheet—give them some space. Let them bake for 10 minutes, then take out and prep the oven for a high broil.
06 -
As things bake, mix the powdered sugar and apple juice or cider in a small bowl till you get a runny icing.
07 -
Brush glaze over the baked bites—let any drip off. Pop the tray back in to broil for 2 to 4 minutes, turning the tray every minute or so. Watch closely so nothing burns.
08 -
Give all the bites a last coat with the rest of your glaze. Let 'em set up on the baking tray for around 15 minutes so the icing firms up.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Want to make these ahead? Store cooled bites in something airtight at room temp for a couple days, or a week in the fridge. Warm them up before munching for the best texture.
