Ingredients
-
1 cup all-purpose white flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 tsp ground allspice
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp salt substitute
1/4 cup Splenda brown sugar
1/4 cup dark molasses
1/4 cup sugar-free maple-flavored syrup
2 tbsp light vanilla yogurt
2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce
Directions
1. Combine flours, allspice, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, nutmeg, and salt well in a medium bowl.
2. In a large bowl, use a wooden spoon to beat molasses, syrup, Splenda brown sugar, applesauce, and yogurt until well blended.
3. Pour the dry ingredients into the larger bowl and mix until a stiff dough forms.
4. Press the dough into a disc, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate 30 minutes.
5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray 2 cookie sheets with non-stick spray.
6. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a 2-inch gingerbread man cookie cutter, cut out cookies. Gather the dough scraps, re-roll, and keep making gingerbread men until all dough is used up.
7. Use a spatula to transfer cookies to cookie sheets, placing them 1-inch apart.
8. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until golden brown, rotating sheets halfway through to ensure even baking. Remove to wire racks and let cool completely.
Makes 18-20 gingerbread men.

I would definitely make again with the following adjustments. I doubled the allspice, cinnamon, cloves, ginger and nutmeg because of the comment about blandness. These were not bland with double spices. I rolled into balls, flattened and dipped in sugar substitute. Very delicious and chewy! - 12/21/08
