Low-Point Fresh Apple Oatmeal Cookies (Weight Watchers)
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup finely chopped apples (about 1 medium apple)
Instructions:
  • Preheat the Oven:Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easy cleanup.
  • Prepare the Dry Ingredients:In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well combined.
  • Prepare the Wet Ingredients:In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, unsweetened applesauce, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Gently fold in the finely chopped apples until evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
  • Form the Cookies:Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Use your fingers or the back of a spoon to gently flatten each cookie slightly, as they won’t spread much during baking.
  • Bake the Cookies:Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden brown around the edges.
  • Cool and Enjoy:Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, serve the Low-Point Fresh Apple Oatmeal Cookies and enjoy their wholesome goodness as a satisfying snack or dessert.
