Time 55m

Yield 36 cookies, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup white sugar or 1/2 cup Splenda granular
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup light molasses
1/2 cup egg substitute
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Whisk egg substitute into applesauce, sugar, brown sugar and molasses.
  • In another bowl combine and sift dry ingredients together. Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients.
  • Let dough rest in the refrigerator 30 minutes or longer before baking.
  • Spray cookie sheet with nonstick spray and place a tablespoon of dough 2-inches apart on the baking sheet.
  • Bake 10-12 minutes until lightly browned. (Longer baking time yields crunchier cookies.).
