SDS Applesauce Oatmeal Cookies

A healthier alternative to the "Vanishing Oatmeal Cookies" on the lid of the Quakers box of oatmeal.  Great for those who can't have dairy (Rafe!).  Gabi went so far as to say these are "more much better" than when we make the cookies according to the recipe.

1/2 cup applesauce (we use non sweetened--just apples, water, and vit C)
3/4 cup white sugar (you can skimp here, last time we didn't have quite that much and it was fine)
1 egg
3/4 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups oatmeal

Stir together applesauce and sugar.  Add egg and vanilla; stir.  Combine flour, baking soda, and cinnamon; stir with wet ingredients.  Stir in oatmeal.  Bake for 10-12 minutes, let cool on cookie sheet for 2 minutes, and enjoy!  Makes 24 cookies.  I don't use the mixer at all for this recipe--just a spoon.

My timer just went off... gotta run! Enjoy!!
