Crisp apples, with creamy brie, sweet caramelized onions, and hot honey are all baked to perfection on a crisp flatbread and topped with arugula that will have your mouth bursting with deliciousness.

It’s apple season! And the ladies of the Cozy Creative Collaborative and I have gotten together this month to bring you some warm and comforting apple recipes. I love apples paired with brie cheese, I think it’s a great fall combo. So I decided to make these apple and brie flatbreads with hot honey. These are a quick appetizer or my favorite way to enjoy an upscale pizza in the fall. Bake them in the oven or enjoy on the grill!

If you are coming over from Kelly at The Tattered Pew, doesn’t her simmer pot look amazing? I love doing simmer pots and I bet hers smells incredible! I can’t wait to try it!

Now here is my recipe for my apple and brie flatbread with hot honey.

Apple and brie flatbread with hot honey

We do family pizza night in our house every Friday. We love to make our own personal pizzas with Naan flatbread. I always top mine with arugula and usually a drizzle of balsamic glaze because it’s sooooo good! For fall I like to switch it up and do apple and brie on my flatbread. I still top with my arugula but I recently discovered this hot honey and it’s a game changer! I think you will love my recipe too!

Ingredients:

1 onion, peeled and sliced thin
butter
1 wheel of brie, cut into chunks
2 apples, sliced thin (I used granny smith and honeycrisp)
Naan flatbreads
Arugula
Hot honey (this is the one I used and it’s so good!)

Directions:

1.) Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

2.) Start by making the onions first as this takes a bit of time. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt some butter and add the onions. Turn the heat down to low and allow to saute until they are cooked and slightly golden brown.

3.) Line a baking sheet with some parchment paper and lay out the flatbreads.

4.) Drizzle the flatbreads with some olive oil and then add the onions on top, spreading out evenly.

5.) Top with the sliced apples and chunks of brie.

6.) Bake in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until the brie is melted and the flatbreads are golden brown.

7.) Top with some fresh arugula and drizzle with hot honey.

Enjoy!!!

Easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip

This post contains affiliate links

If you love apple pie or have leftover pie crust, you are going to want to make these easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip!

When I think of fall, I think of going apple picking, helping my mom make an apple pie and then going outside to play in a big pile of leaves while the pie bakes in the oven. This recipe makes me so nostalgic for a simple and cozy fall. I was so honored when the ladies from the Handcrafted Society asked me to join them for this month’s blog hop, all about leaves. I knew exactly what I wanted to do! I think you all will love this recipe as much as I do!

If you are coming from Diane at South House Designs, thank you so much for popping over! I hope you will stay awhile! How pretty was her modge podge decor?

Now scroll on down for my easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip recipe.

Easy pie crust leaf cookies with apple pie dip

Refrigerated pie crust is cut out into leaf shapes and basted with cinnamon and sugar to make a simple yet sweet cookie. Apples, more cinnamon and sugar are cooked until tender in the crock pot to not only make your house smell amazing, but it makes a great dip for your cookies! You can use any dip you like, I also like to do a pumpkin dip (recipe coming soon!) But this apple pie dip is my favorite!

Ingredients: For the apple pie dip

6 medium apples, peeled and cored. (I used pink lady but honeycrisp or granny smith work well too!)
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
slab of butter

For the leaf cookies

Refrigerated pie crust
1 egg
1 Tbsp water or milk
pinch of cinnamon and sugar

Directions:

1.) In a crockpot, add the butter, chopped apples, sugars, cinnamon and nutmeg and stir well.

2.) Cover and cook on low for 2-3 hours. 3.) While the apples are cooking, start to prepare the pie crust cookies. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 4.) On a lightly floured surface or on parchment paper, roll out the dough. 5.) Using some cookie cutters or a butter knife, cut out your desired leaf shapes and place on the parchment paper lined baking sheet.

6.) Prepare an egg wash by whisking together 1 egg and 1 Tbsp of water or milk. Sprinkle in some cinnamon and sugar.

7.) Using a basting or pastry brush, lightly brush the egg wash mixture onto each cut out cookie.

8.) Place in the oven and bake until golden brown, about 12-15 minutes.

9.) Scoop the baked apple dip into a bowl and serve with the pie crust cookies. Enjoy!!!

Store cookies in a ziploc bag and the dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
