How to Make Chunky Spiced Oatmeal Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup molasses, 1/4 cup Splenda (or other granulated sugar substitute), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix well.
  3. In a separate small bowl, beat 1 large egg lightly. Add to the wet ingredients and mix until thoroughly combined.
  4. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice, 2 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup raisins, 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed, and 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
