Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg white
- 0.5 cups Mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 for greasing Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Mix well until fully blended.
Add the vanilla extract and egg white to the wet mixture. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
Fold in the mini semi-sweet chocolate chips gently to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The cookies will appear soft in the center but will firm up as they cool.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your low-fat chocolate chip cookies with a glass of cold milk or as a delightful standalone treat!
