Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the diced apples, rolled oats, and chopped nuts (if using). Ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 5 cm (2 inches) apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies may look slightly underdone in the center, but they will firm as they cool.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the pans for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve your Delicious Fresh Apple Cookies with a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy!
