Hi all, this is my healthy recipe for cookies. They are delicious and easy to make. My kids love them and I make them weekly:

Dry Ingredients:

1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cup quick rolled oats
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 TBSP cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional - could use raisins or walnuts)

Wet Ingredients:

1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1/2 cup olive or coconut oil
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla

Mix dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl, mix wet ingredients together. Mix wet with dry. If it seems too wet, add a pinch or two of extra flour. Cool the mix for 20 minutes in the fridge (sometimes I don't bother doing this). Preheat oven to 335 degrees. Drop by tablespoons onto a greased baking pan - 24 cookies. Press down with a fork to ensure even cooking but not too thin. Bake about 15-20 minutes (my oven is 22 minutes) or until golden brown.

Mine work out to be about 60 calories each. YUM!!

    I have a similar recipe that I've been making for a year or two. My husband hates the texture of regular oatmeal cookies so I started putting the oats through the food processor before adding them to the dough. I get them to a coarse cornmeal consistency and you can't tell the cookies have oatmeal.
