How to Make Oatmeal Oat Bran Cookie Bites

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups rolled oats, ½ cup oat bran, 1 cup all-purpose flour, ½ cup packed brown sugar, ½ cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together ½ cup unsweetened applesauce, ¼ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 large egg.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. If the dough is too dry, add 2-4 tablespoons of soy milk or water, one tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
  5. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped walnuts.
  6. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten slightly with a fork.
  7. Bake for 15-17 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through, until golden brown.
  8. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Enjoy immediately for a soft cookie, or freeze for later. Frozen cookies will maintain their crunchy texture.
