Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F and grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
In a large bowl, combine melted butter and sugar; whisk in egg, vanilla extract, and applesauce until smooth.
Gently stir dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined; fold in diced apples carefully.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes.
Prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar with apple cider until thin; brush over warm bites.
Broil for 2-4 minutes until the glaze caramelizes slightly, then brush with remaining glaze before serving.
