Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup raisins or chocolate chips (because why not?)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This is where the magic happens!
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Give it a good stir like you mean it!
  3. In another bowl, mix together the applesauce, brown sugar, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. You want it smooth and digestively tempting.
  4. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry mixture. Stir until everything is just combined. You don’t want to overdo it—nobody likes a tough cookie!
  5. Fold in the raisins or chocolate chips. Now we’re talking!
  6. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. They’re going to spread out and get cozy.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The house will smell like a delicious apple pie gone wild.
  8. Let them cool for a few minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Patience is a virtue, even when cookies are involved.
