Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsweetened crushed pineapple (canned, drained)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Sugar substitute (granular, suitable for baking)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate larger mixing bowl, combine the crushed pineapple, egg, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and sugar substitute. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until a soft, sticky dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for slight spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set and the tops of the cookies are lightly golden.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on it for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the Pineapple Drops in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
