Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, oats, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
Step 3
In a separate large bowl, beat together coconut oil, coconut sugar, vanilla extract and egg until smooth and creamy. Fold in shredded apple with wooden spoon.
Step 4
Slowly add in dry ingredients and mix until just combined and a dough forms. Fold in pecans, if using. Place dough in fridge for 10-15 minutes.
Step 5
Use a medium cookie scoop to place cookie dough on a baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9-12 minutes or until cookies are golden brown around the edges. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.
Step 6
While the cookies cool, make the glaze by mixing peanut butter, vanilla, powdered sugar and almond milk together in a medium bowl. The glaze should be drippy enough to glaze over cookies. Add more almond milk if necessary.
