CINNAMON APPLESAUCE



Cinnamon Applesauce image

A snack doesn't need to be heavy to be satisfying. This nonfat, high-fiber applesauce, made in the microwave, fits the bill. If you prefer a sweeter applesauce, choose red apples, such as Fuji or Gala, instead of adding more sugar.

3 pounds Macintosh apples (about 6), quartered and cored

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/2 cup chunky-style applesauce
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1 cup golden raisins
1 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Make cookies: Preheat oven to 350. Put butter and sugars in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until combined. Add egg and applesauce, mix until well blended, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix in raisins.

  • Make icing: Whisk confectioners' sugar, syrup, and 3tablespoons water until smooth. Drizzle over cookies, let set.

Tips:

  • Use fresh apples for the best flavor. Try to use firm apples that will hold their shape when baked.
  • Peel and core the apples before grating them. You can use a food processor or a box grater to grate the apples.
  • Be sure to drain any excess liquid from the applesauce before adding it to the cookie dough. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming too wet.
  • Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. This will help to ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are golden brown around the edges. The centers of the cookies should still be slightly soft.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon applesauce cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy, with a sweet and tangy flavor. The applesauce adds a moistness to the cookies that makes them irresistible. Whether you are looking for a snack, a dessert, or a gift, these cookies are sure to please.
