Description
Cookies for breakfast and you can feel good about eating them!
Ingredients
- ¼ cups Unsweetened Apple Sauce
- ⅓ cups Brown Sugar
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 cup Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
- ½ teaspoons Salt
- ⅛ teaspoons Nutmeg
- ¾ cups Shredded Fresh Apple (whatever Apple Your Prefer Or Have On Hand)
- 1 cup Chopped Pecans
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375ºF.
In a large bowl, whisk together the applesauce, sugar, egg and vanilla. Stir in the whole wheat flour, oats, honey, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. The mixture will be very thick, but that’s okay! Gently fold in the fresh shredded apples and pecans until everything is well combined.
Using an ice cream scoop (about 1/4 cup), scoop the cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat and gently flatten the tops. Bake at 375ºF for 15-20 minutes until the bottoms are golden. Let cool slightly before eating!
