Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Stevia-based sweetener (granulated)
- 0.5 cup Raisins
- 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the old-fashioned oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, egg, vanilla extract, and stevia-based sweetener until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the raisins and chopped walnuts (if using).
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each cookie slightly with the back of the spoon to form a cookie shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
