I had wanted to make these cookies for quite awhile. I kept expecting them to use fresh apples, and every time I had apples on hand, I had to remind myself that I needed dried apples. When I finally made a trip to Trader Joe's and bought the dried apples I was finally able to make a wonderful fall cookie.
The sweetness of the apples paired with the tartness of the cherries was a great mixture. The cookies reminded me of a great oatmeal, minus the sogginess. The name was also true. These cookies were crumbly. Cutting them was useless because they fell into pieces in the container. That didn't matter however.
I am still curious if fresh apples would be possible in this recipe. I think I would have to make a sturdier crust to withhold the liquid of the apples. Fresh apples are easier to come by, cheaper, and do not require an extra step at some factory so I would love getting to use them instead.
