½ cup butter, room temperature
1 ½ cups brown sugar, packed
1 large egg
¼ cup buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons apple pie spice
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups peeled and chopped tart apple (like Granny Smith)
1 cup chopped toasted pecans
2 Tablespoons melted butter
1 Tablespoon milk (more if desired for a thinner glaze)
1 teaspoon vanilla

  • Using a stand mixer or handheld mixer, beat butter and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add in egg and buttermilk and mix until well combined, scraping down the side of the bowl as needed.

  • Using a cookie scoop or rounded tablespoon, drop dough at least 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake 11-14 minutes, or until light brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 3-5 minutes before moving onto cooling racks.
  • Whisk together the glaze ingredients, adjusting the consistency to preference. Wait until the cookies are just slightly warm to brush on the glaze.
  • Allow the glaze to harden then enjoy!
