How to Make Applesauce Raisin Chews

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened margarine and sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Beat in the applesauce, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Stir in the rolled oats and raisins.
7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
8. Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once completely cool, store the Applesauce Raisin Chews in an airtight container at room temperature.
