Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Low-fat Nutella
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 whole Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the low-fat Nutella, granulated sugar, and unsweetened applesauce until well combined.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture and beat until just incorporated.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the Nutella mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough and form 1-inch balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the middle is slightly soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your low-fat Nutella cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage.
