Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F and grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
In a large bowl, mix melted butter and sugar until smooth; add egg, vanilla, and applesauce, whisking until combined.
Add dry ingredients to wet mixture and stir until just combined; gently fold in diced apples.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for about 10 minutes; then broil on high for an additional 2–4 minutes to caramelize the glaze.
