Ingredients
-
0.50 cup Butter, salted
2 large Egg, fresh, whole, raw
2 tsp Cinnamon, ground

3 tsp Baking Powder

Tips
Th applesauce is the trick of keeping these cookies low in fat and carbs. I use it as a substitute for both oils and sugars.
You can substitute the tart cherries with your choice of dried fruit and the pecans with another chopped nut. I generally freeze half of the dough to bake up later.

Preheat oven to 350* and lightly oil a baking sheet.
Cream together the first seven ingredients. Slowly add flour and Baking powder then add nuts and fruit.
Drop by teaspoon full onto the lightly oiled baking sheet.
