pre-tri carbo loading is so tasty! i have been craving oatmeal raisin cookies for weeks. somehow these are my favorite cookies, even thought they have no chocolate. this is slightly healthified version, but still tastes like a real treat.
- 1/2 C unsweetened applesauce (i substituted about a T of this with molasses)
- 1 egg
- 1 t vanilla (we make our own)
- 1/2 C packed brown sugar
- 1/2 t baking soda
- 1 t cinnamon
- 1/2 t salt
- 3/4 C white wheat flour
- 1 1/2 C rolled oats (slow cook)
- 2/3 C raisins
- 1/2 C chopped walnuts
- mix eggs, vanilla, sugar, and applesauce in a large bowl. add flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and mix well. fold in raisins, walnuts, and oats.
- bake at 375 for 11-12 minutes.
- yields two dozen delicious cookies.

So, despite Peter Reinhart’s recommendation to use light molasses, i used Black Strap. I have used this molasses in several recipes, but mainly oatmeal raisin cookies. [...]
