INGREDIENTS

DIRECTIONS

90g

unsalted butter

browned butter

To brown the butter, heat it in a pan over medium-high heat until the milk proteins start to caramaelise and precipiatate, and let it cool down completely before continuing

200g

100g

2 tsp

½ tsp

white sugar

brown sugar

vanilla extract

salt

egg

Combine butter (browned and regular, making sure the total adds up to 180g), egg, vanilla sugar, salt, and both sugars in a large bowl and mix until combined

350g

50g

1 tsp

1/2 tsp

oat flour

corn starch

baking powder

cinnamon

To make oat flour, simply blend up regular oats in a food processor

Mix in the dry ingredients

200g

50g

1/2 tsp

50g

1/2 tsp

sugar

pecans

salt

browned butter

baking soda

Heat up the sugar and salt together with the pecan pieces in a pan, constantly stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved and caramelised

Add in the butter and baking soda, mix until combined (it will fluff up) and pour onto a baking sheet to cool, then break into small pieces

small apples

toffee brittle

Cut the apples into small pieces and add them to the cookie dough together with the toffee brittle pieces

Preheat oven to 180°C / 356°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper

Get the dough from the fridge, roll them into little balls, and flatten them out a bit (also make sure to leave quite some room between the cookies so they don’t merge into a huge monster cookie)
Bake them for 8-10 minutes or until the edges look golden brown (the cookies will still be very soft at this point)

tips & tricks

PERFECTLY ROUND COOKIES

As soon as the cookies are out of the oven, grab a glass or small bowl with a diameter slightly larger than your cookies, place it over your cookies (rim down) and give each cookie a little circular shake

MOST DELICIOUS DESSERT

The only thing better than freshly baked cookies, is warm cookie dough straight out of the oven with some ice cream.

For the perfect dessert, press some cookie dough in a small ramekin and bake it at 180°C / 356° F for about 6-8 minutes and serve it right away with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.

MICROWAVE THEM

In case you’ve never tried this – give them 10-20s in the microwave (carefully) and they taste just like out of the oven!
