Thanksgiving Dessert : Apple Pie Snicker Doodle Canapés
by:
This is my healthier take on apple pie and snicker doodle cookie. It is crispy, it is nutty, it is fragrant with cinnamon and honey and the goodness of apples and pie crust makes this dessert amazing. It is not at all heavy like apple pie and the sugar content is so much in control that you will make it again and again. Go bake and dig in these simple yet elegant goodies.

3. Take a middle size or 3 inch diameter cookie cutter or a small opening bowl, and cut out circles from that pie.
