How to Make No Fat Chewy Oatmeal Spice Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease or line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 1 cup unsweetened applesauce (or 3/4 cup applesauce + 4 tablespoons softened margarine), 2 large egg whites, 1/4 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional).
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Stir in 3 cups rolled oats and 1 cup of your favorite dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, chopped apricots, etc.).
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers will still appear 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 cooled, store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
