From: “Ann Lally”

last night I made the best cookies with a minimal amount of fat. No
added fat, just whatever naturally occurs in oatmeal. So here it
goes….

Applesauce Oatmeal Drops
1/4 c brown sugar 1 tsp baking powder
1/4 c white sugar 1/2 tsp salt
3/4 c natural unsweetened applesauce 1 c rolled oats
1 c sifted all purpose flour 1/2 c seedless raisins

Mix sugars and add applesauce. Sift together dry ingrediants and stir
in. Add oats and raisins. Drop by spoonfuls onto lightly greased
cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees about 10 minutes.

Note: I left out the raisins because I don’t care for them. Also, I
added 1/2 tsp of cinnamon. The next time I make these I may cut back
on the sugar because they are rather sweet. These cookies were nice
and fluffy (for a fat-less cookie) and remind me of muffins. These
are so quick and easy to make, I just love them! I hope everyone
enjoys them.
