OATMEAL APPLESAUCE COOKIES



Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies image

In 2005 I had back surgery. My Mom came for a week to watch the kids/take care of the house. She made these for the boys and they devoured them she said. I don't know how many these make. I know at least 3 dozen - so that is the amount I will put. Okay - I have tried at least 2 different times to edit this recipe on the directions. More than one person has wanted to make it so I will finish the directions here! :) Basically - mix all ingredients very well in large bowl. Drop by teaspoons onto greased cookie sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 11 minutes. If you like them crunchy - let them bake a bit longer. Enjoy!

Tips for Making Applesauce Cookies

1. Use unsweetened applesauce

One of the key ingredients in any applesauce cookie recipe is, of course, applesauce. When selecting applesauce for your cookie recipe, it is important to select unsweetened applesauce. This will ensure that your cookies are not overly sweet and that you are getting the health benefits of the apples without adding extra sugar.

2. Use whole wheat flour

Another important ingredient in applesauce cookies is the flour that you use. To make your cookies healthier and more filling, it is recommended that you use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. This will give your cookies a nuttier flavor and provide more fiber that will keep you feeling full for longer.

3. Use natural sweeteners instead of refined sugars

To make your applesauce cookies even healthier, you should avoid using refined sugars whenever possible. Instead, try using natural sweeteners like maple syrup, honey or coconut sugar. These natural sweeteners are healthier and they offer more flavor to your cookies.

4. Add nuts for texture and flavor

Adding nuts to your applesauce cookie recipe is a great way to add texture and flavor to your cookies. Walnuts or pecans are particularly delicious in applesauce cookies, but you can also try almonds or cashews for a different flavor profile.

5. Use spices to add flavor

Spices are another important ingredient in applesauce cookies that give them their delicious flavor. Cinnamon is a classic spice that is often used in apple desserts, but you could also try adding nutmeg, allspice, or cloves for a unique twist on the recipe.

6. Let the dough chill before baking

For best results, it is recommended that you let your applesauce cookie dough chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the dough to become firm and hold its shape better during baking.

7. Watch the baking time carefully

Applesauce cookies can be easy to overcook or undercook, so it is important to watch the baking time carefully. Baking times can vary depending on the size and thickness of your cookies, so it's best to check them frequently while baking to ensure they do not overcook.

8. Store the cookies properly

Once your applesauce cookies have cooled, it is important to store them properly to keep them fresh. To do this, place them in an airtight container and keep them at room temperature for up to a week. Alternatively, you can store your cookies in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Conclusion
