These cookies might be the best thing I’ve eaten all week. They are soft, fluffy, the perfect balance of sweetness, energizing… and just so damn good I have a hard time not eating the whole batch in one sitting!
While coming up with the recipe the last thing I decided to added was the applesauce. The batter was still too dry & I didn’t want to add any more fat. Applesauce is such a staple in my healthy baking & it really helped these cookies reach the consistency I was looking for.
One suggestion, you may as well make 2 batches while you are at it because 1 batch of these delicious cookies won’t last long.
