Heat oven 350 degrees F and coat two baking sheets with cooking spray
Mix:
2 cups all purpose flour (I used 1 cup whole wheat and 1 cup white)
1 1/4 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup light brown sugar
1 1/2 t. baking soda
1/2 t. baking powder
3/4 t. cinnamon
1/4 t. salt
Then add:
1/4 cup store bought applesauce (we used unsweetened)
1/4 cup orange juice
3 T unsalted butter, melted
3 large egg whites
1 t. vanilla extract
Mix in:
1/3 cup raisins
1/4 cup chopped apricots (we used a no-nut trail mix instead)
(we added a couple handfuls of chocolate chips too, that's the kid enticer)
For each cookie drop in 2 generous tablespoons of batter onto baking sheet. The batter tends to be very thick but I think that's how its supposed to be.
Then it says to bake 10 to 11 minutes, but for some reason, probably because mine were huge, we added a couple extra minutes to make sure the middle was cooked. It kind of flattened out a bit and looked more like a mini scone.
The picture looked way different from ours, but the kids ate it up anyway.
With a glass of OJ or milk these also make a good option for breakfast, even with the chocolate chips. Yay!
