Ingredients
Jammy Bits:1 ½ cups whole-berry cranberry sauce½ cup unsweetened applesauce1 tbsp sugargranulated sugar to coat (if not using immediately) ---Cookies:1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk1 ½ tbsp lemon juice1 2/3 cup natural peanut butter2/3 cup packed brown sugar1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted1 tbsp maple syrup1 cup triticale flour (or whole wheat pastry flour)½ cup oat flour1 tbsp maca powder (optional but tasty)3 cups quick (not instant) oats1 tsp baking powder1 ½ tsp baking soda1 tsp salt1 tsp vanillaJammy bits (see above) or 1 cup dried fruit
Directions
Jammy Bits:
Preheat oven to 170F. Line a small rimmed baking sheet or square pan with parchment (I used a 6" square pan, I've also had luck with a toaster oven pan).
In a blender, puree the cranberry sauce, applesauce and sugar. Spread evenly in the pan.
Bake for 5-6 hours, then check to see if it is set (slightly firmer than "Gummi Bear" consistency). If not, return to the oven for another hour or two, checking every 30 minutes.
If firm, remove from the oven and cool completely on the pan, then chill before cutting into squares.
Use immediately or roll in granulated sugar and store in the fridge.

Cookies:
Heat the oven to 350F and line baking sheets with parchment or silicone (do not grease).
Whisk the almond milk with the lemon juice and let stand 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, sugars, maple syrup and vanilla.
Add the almond milk, then beat in the flours, maca, oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Fold in the jammy bits or dried fruit.
Scoop onto the sheets (no more than 8 per sheet - they spread).
Bake for 20 minutes, rotating pans halfway through.
