Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup Light brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg white
- 0.75 cup Raisins
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly spray them with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed. Set aside.
In a separate larger bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, light brown sugar, vanilla extract, and egg white until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients from the medium bowl into the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until fully incorporated. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the raisins carefully to ensure they are distributed evenly throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Lightly flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon or damp fingers, as the dough will not spread much during baking.
Place one baking sheet at a time in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges.
Remove the 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.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Enjoy your low-fat oatmeal raisin cookies guilt-free!
