Very low-cal, low-fat hybrid oatmeal cookie recipe, taken from and (yet again) tweaked to my liking. As usual, I have yet to attempt this in real life, but in theory it seems to work out rather well! Ingredients:
1/2 cup applesauce |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup brown sugar |
2 egg whites |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 cups oatmeal |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 cup skim milk |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375°. 2. Use an electric mixer to cream together the applesauce and sugars; add the egg whites one at a time and beat until well blended. 3. Combine the flour, oatmeal, cinnamon and baking powder in a bowl. Alternating with the milk, add the dry ingredients to the batter by hand, a little a time, stirring to blend. Stir in the vanilla / almond extract. 4. Drop by teaspoons or tablespoons onto ungreased baking sheets and bake until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool for about 2 minutes on the sheets before using a spatula to transfer the cookies to a rack to finish cooling. |
