Ingredients for Applesauce Raisin Cookies

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • Brown Sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • Bisquick
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • Allspice
  • 1 cup raisins

How to Make Applesauce Raisin Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your cookie sheets.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) of softened unsalted butter and ¾ cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon ground cloves, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 1 cup unsweetened applesauce and 1 cup raisins.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
