Number of Servings: 30

Ingredients

    1 C. White Flour (could sub wheat if wanted)
    1 1/2 C. Quick oats (Quaker Quick Oats)
    1/2 C. Splenda
    1 tsp. Baking soda
    Dash of Cinnamon
    1/4 C. Sugar free applesauce (I used the snack pack)
    1/4 C. + 2 Tbsp. Honey
    1 tsp. Vanilla extract
    1 1/4 C. Raisins
    Could also add nuts, dried cranberries, dried cherries, dried apples - I suppose any dried fruit you wish. I REALLY liked the jumbo raisins! YUMMY!!!!

Tips

You could also use all black raisins for a traditional oatmeal raisin cookie, but I had these raisins in the cabinet and decided to give it a try. The colors in the raisins make them more attractive. Also, you could probably reduce the Splenda by ½ only using ¼ cup because these cookies are very sweet! They are chewy and delicious! As you can see from the picture - they make rather big cookies!


Directions

Stir flour, oats, Splenda, baking soda and cinnamon (mix well). Add applesauce, honey and vanilla. Still until the mix comes together and begins to stick. It will be a sticky batter. Add raisins and stir until well incorporated. Use teaspoons (or dinner spoons) to drop teaspoon size batter onto sprayed cookie sheet. Mash cookies down with the back of a serving spoon (sprayed lightly with cooking spray so it won't stick). I formed mine a little when I mashed them down so they would be somewhat round (not perfect of course). Cook for 6-9 minutes at 350 degrees until golden brown. I’m planning on freezing some of these for later use. They are WONDERFUL and easy to make!!! Bonus – you only dirty one bowl while making these :)

    Really good--used small amount of sugar instead of splenda. Very sweet and chewy and tastes like old fashioned cookie batter. Next time will use no sugar--just honey. - 5/5/13

    They are a good low cal alternative for cookies. They came out nice but a little on the dry side. Maybe a little more applesauce next time. - 3/24/14

    Delicious! I used half the amount of splenda and could have probably cut it out altogether. These really hit the spot when you are craving something sweet and yummy. You would never guess they are low cal at all and two cookies was plenty with a cup of tea for my sweet tooth. :) - 7/20/11
