This outcome has left the Gunners five points above the relegation zone.
Following the home win, the Toffees have moved up to second on the table. Nigerian forward Alex Iwobi assisted Dominic Calvert-Lewin with a cross which he converted beautifully with a header and then deflected off Arsenal defender Rob Holding and straight hit the back of the net in the 22nd minute.
Mikel Arteta's side levelled in the 35th minute when Ivorian winger Nicolas Pepe netted from the penalty spot, awarded after a Tom Davies foul on Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
