Combining peanut butter, oatmeal, and applesauce makes chewy moist cookies.

Servings

1 cooking spray
9 oz Peanut Butter, chunky
4 cup quick cooking rolled oats
5 cup white all purpose flour
1 pint unsweetened applesauce
0.75 cup sweetener (sugar substitute) (such as Splenda)
1 eggs
0.5 tsp ground ginger
0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
0.5 tsp ground cloves
1 cup cold water
0.75 cup seedless raisins
1 tsp Soda, club
1 tsp vanilla extract

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray cookie sheets with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2 In a large bowl, mix peanut butter, egg, all the spices, vanilla, water, applesauce, soda, and Splenda at medium speed for 1 minute.
3 Add oatmeal and raisins, mix for about 2 minutes at medium speed. Scrape side of bowl with spoon while mixing.
4 Slowly add flour and mix slowly to prevent running out of bowl. Mix just enough to be uniform. Dough should be wet but not juicy. If too wet add a little more flour.
5 Form dough into balls about 1 inch diameter. Mash down on cookie sheet with fork. Dip hands and fork in flour to prevent sticking as necessary.
6 Place in oven and bake for 18 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet and let cool on paper towel.
7 Best to store in refrigerator or freeze for long term storage.

Makes 40-50 cookies.
