Ingredients
- 3 cups organic rolled oats gluten free certified if necessary
- 3/4 cups pecan meal
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 cup cinnamon applesauce
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup local honey
- 1/2 cup organic skim milk or milk of choice
- 1 organic egg
- 1 cup peeled and grated RAVE apple *see directions below
- homemade caramel sauce {optional}
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line baking sheet with a non-stick silicone mat or parchment paper.
- Add rolled oats, pecan meal, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and sea salt to a large bowl, stir to combine.
- In separate bowl, combine applesauce, coconut sugar, honey, milk, and egg, whisk until well combined.
- Once you've grated apples, remove all liquid by squeezing with a clean paper towel - do this BEFORE measuring. Add grated apples to wet ingredients and stir again to combine.
- Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients, and gently mix together.
- Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the cookie mixture onto the baking sheet. I used the bottom side of measuring cup to gently flatten each cookie.
- Bake cookies for 18-20 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown.
- For a sweeter cookie, allow to cool and drizzle with homemade caramel sauce.
- Store in and airtight container for 3-5 days.
Notes
*If you are unable to find RAVE apples, try a honey crisp or pink lady.
