Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.75 cup raisins
- 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup packed brown sugar
- 0.25 cup melted unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
In a medium bowl, mix together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the applesauce, brown sugar, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the raisins to evenly distribute them through the dough.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your soft and chewy Oatmeal Raisin Applesauce Cookies as a snack or dessert!
