Introduction
I'm trying to eat more "natural," which includes making my own treats. These fit the bill, technically except for the applesauce (but if you want, you can use oil instead of apple sauce, though it'll raise the calories). These don't use any sugar.I bet these would be good with pieces of apple or peach, or chocolate chips.

Ingredients
-
Whole Wheat Flour, 1 cup (plus extra if needed)
Oatmeal, 1 1/2 cup
Honey, 1/2 cup
Applesauce, unsweetened, 1/2 cup
Egg, fresh, 1 large (beat w/1 tbsp water)
Baking Powder, 1/2 tsp
Baking Soda, 1/2 tsp
Salt, 1/2 tsp
Vanilla Extract, 1 tsp
Cinnamom 1-3 tbsp
Raisins 1/2 cup (optional)
Note: The recipe called for 1 tbsp molassas, which I did not use, and oil instead of applesauce. They came out fine without it.
Directions
Preparation:
In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together.
In a medium bowl, mix all the wet ingredients together. Hint: when measuring out the honey, spray the measuring cup with oil or baking spray--your honey won't stick).
Mix the wet stuff with the dry stuff. Add the raisins and walnuts and mix. If the mixture seems too wet, add a bit of flour. If it isn't binding together very well, you may wish to add an egg white.
COOL the mix for 20 minutes in the fridge.
Preheat the oven to 335 degrees (lower temperature due to the honey in the recipe which will burn more easily).
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto your baking sheet (I recommend lining the baking sheet with parchment paper). Press down with a fork to ensure even cooking.
Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until golden on the bottom of the cookie. The cookies freeze very well and make a great snack! Enjoy.
