Mini Apple Tarts

Instead of a whole pie, try making bite-size tarts. The diminutive desserts cook quicker and are automatically portion controlled. Plus, they're easier to make for a crowd, and there's no need for a fork and plate.

These are wonderful cookies and they are so easy to make. I made mine with splenda and natural peanut butter and 1 cookie is 78 calories...splendid!!! - 4/26/08

These cookies have made me famous over the years :) But I put a Hershey's Kiss on top of each cookie before baking--- I promise they won't melt!! SO delicious :) - 9/2/09

I like this with 2/3 cups sugar if you are using a sweetened peanutbutter--otherwise they're fabulous! - 12/23/08

THey hold together wonderfully without the flour...although they are sticky when you roll them in a ball. I usuallly put my fork in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar when I indent the cookies....and I always make a double batch.....they turn out perfect. - 12/22/08

Loved making these! Three ingredients I already had in my cupboard and took no more than five minutes to get in the oven. Doesn't get much better than that with a toddler running around! They do fall apart, but it's a small price to pay for the easy, easy recipe. - 11/11/10

I made these tonight and they are GREAT! All I had was reduced fat peanut butter so I used that and I also used half sugar and half splenda. Mine came out to be 82 calories and 4 grams of fat per cookie. Delicious! - 8/4/09

Does this recipe have some gluten free flour in it? I can't see how it would stay together with just peanut butter sugar and egg, unless the peanut butter in America is different to here in Australia. - 12/30/07

If I were to use splenda, how much of it should I use?

These are serioulsy amazing! Easy and delicous, crunchy yet chewy. Quick to make and satisfy a craving, perfect, because they are flourless and low-carb! Yum!
I did not roll theminto balls, but did roll in icing sugar. They did fall apart, but could be pressed into shape fresh out the oven. - 5/27/11

They fall apart very easy...but they taste delicious. My husband and EXTREMELY picky man nearly devoured all of them! I put my batch in for a little longer to get it good & crisp. I think it helped to hold them together a little better. Very impressed. - 1/27/11
