Time 22m

Yield 12 big cookies, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup margarine (room temperature)
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup milk, of choice (I`ve used soy and rice)
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

Move oven rack to slightly above middle and turn oven on to 375°F In one bowl, sift dry ingredients together and set aside. In another bowl, beat margarine with brown sugar, then add the rest of the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and mix until just combined. Spoon 12 batches on the greased and foil-lined cookie sheet and, with a water-wet spoon, spread out and push down the batter to the height of the chocolate chips.
Bake for 8-12 minutes, careful not to overbake - Cookies should be soft and will harden a little bit after being cooked. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack after 1-2 minutes of taking them out of the oven. Best eaten warm.
