Sugarfree Oatmeal/Carrot Cake cookies w/raisins

Submitted by: LIZBETHMSR

Introduction

Sugar free, wheat free, low fat! Sugar free, wheat free, low fat!
Number of Servings: 48

Ingredients

    * Carrots, raw, 1.5 cup, grated
    * Egg, fresh, 2 large
    * Crisco Pure Vegetable Oil 1/2 cup
    * Applesauce, unsweetened, 1/2 cup
    * Quaker Long Cooking Oatmeal, 1 3/4 cups
    * Baking Soda, 1 tsp
    * Cinnamon, ground, 1 tsp
    * Salt, 1/2 tsp
    * Raisins, 1 cup (not packed)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350

In one bowl add mix dry ingredients:
1 cup plus a bit more long cooking oats - ground into flour (I use my food processor)
1/2 + a bit more whole long cooking oats
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unpacked raisins

In another bowl mix wet ingredients:
1 1/2 cups grated carrots (or 1 cup grated zucchini works too)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

Add dry ingredients to the wet and mix until blended completely. Let sit for about 5 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.

Drop by measured tablespoons onto parchment lined cookie sheets (I use the Airbake pans - so cooking time may vary)
Bake for 15 - 18 minutes until firm and golden brown in color. Remove from pan and cool on a wire rack (I do this immediately)

Makes at least 48.

I have children and adults alike lining up for these cookies - a great way to get some veggies into those persnickidy eaters!

    These don't remind me much of carrot cake and as others said it is not a killer sweet cookie. I would like to sweeten more with Splenda, but am not very good at altering recipes. Thanks for recipe - it is a very pretty cookie. I got 33 cookies - following measuring directions. - 4/4/12

    Don't expect something as sweet as an oatmeal cookie or a carrot cake but when you're trying to cut down on sugar these really fill the craving for baking and baked goods. - 5/22/08

    I am on a sugar/flour/fruit free diet because of a yeast problem and these hit the spot for me . I had to omit the raisins too , but they still tasted good . Thank You ! - 4/18/08

    I replaced the ground oats with ground almonds, put twice as much cinnamon (2 tsp) and less oil (2tbsp), baked for 20+min. Tasty! (I'm used to low/no sugar snacks) - 3/11/13

    Excellent recipe! I followed directions and got 32 cookies, rather than 48. This changed the macronutrient breakdown. Based on a 32-cookie yield per batch, I came up with the following numbers (per cookie): Calories: 68.6, Fat: 4.03 grams, Carbs: 7.6, Protein: 1.20 - 10/28/12
