Low Fat Apple-Cranberry Breakfast Cookies image

A great choice for breakfast on the run, but also good with a relaxing cup of coffee.Originally from Weight Watchers, I've tweaked the recipe to suit my taste. 1 cookie = 2 points (If you omit the walnuts, they are 1 point each.)

Time 29m

Yield 30 cookies, 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup light butter
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 1/2 cups wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups uncooked old fashioned oats (or quick)
1/2 cup apple, chopped (or dried apples)
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Combine butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer; beat until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add eggs and beat for 30 seconds; add applesauce and beat just to mix.
  • In another bowl, stir together flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda; add to mixer and beat to form batter. Mix in oats. Add apples, cranberries and walnuts; combine by hand.
  • Coat cookie sheet with cooking spray. Drop batter by heaping tablespoons 1 inch apart. Bake until cookies are lightly browned and firm, about 13 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes. Move to wire rack and cool completely. Note: Store leftovers in an airtight plastic bag or container in the freezer.
