Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 0.75 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well incorporated.
In a large bowl, mix together the unsweetened applesauce and light brown sugar until smooth. Add in the vanilla extract and the egg, beating until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients from the medium-sized bowl into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Gently fold in the raisins until evenly distributed.
Drop tablespoon-sized portions of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches apart between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges.
Remove cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your homemade low fat oatmeal and raisin cookies fresh, or store them in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
