Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir until the dry ingredients are well combined.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk the egg. Then add the unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract, stirring until the wet ingredients are well mixed.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
Gently fold in the grated apple and chopped walnuts (if using), ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each dough mound slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers to form a cookie shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are set.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Whole30-compliant chewy apple cookies!
