Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 large Egg whites
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, egg whites, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture forms a cohesive dough.
Fold in the raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten the tops of the cookies with the back of a spoon or your fingers to achieve an even shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets 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 one week.
