Makes 3 dozen of the yummiest cookies around. No margarine and very little oil!!

1 cup flour
1 1/3 cup rolled oats, uncooked
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 Tablespoons oil
1/2 cup splenda (I used sugar cause splenda costs too much in Israel)
1/2 cup Demarara sugar (I used brown)
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla

Put flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl and mix together. Combine other ingredients and stir in. Add flour mixture and stir (I didn't use a mixer for this. Just my bare hands!)

Wet hands and form small balls. Place 2 inches apart ona lined cookie sheet. Press down slightly with a wet fork.

Bake for 9-10 minutes or until bottoms are brown.

Made them yesterday. Easy, breezy! just added a handful of dark chocolate chips. Looks and smells unbelievable. Didn't taste it yet, though (I am being good and not eating sweets before bed:) Will check it out at tonight's meal.

It's light brown and it's supposed to be healthier than brown sugar because sometimes there are additives in brown sugar.

I made them for Shabbos but didn't have applesauce so I put 1/4 c oil & I added raisins. They were great!

That's just in Israel. In America, they're all the same.

Thank you! I tried supposedly low-fat cookies before, but they all needed more flour and much more oil than this recipe.

Do you think I can make these with spelt or whole wheat flour instead of white?

Maybe I'll make it tomorrow.

I noticed some of you used oil instead of applesauce. Is applesauce a substitute to oil?

Oooooh, Cookielady herself is going to try "my" recipe! I'm honored!!!

If you want to cut down on oil you can often cut out about 1/3 of the oil and use applesauce. It's alot healthier and you don't taste or see the difference, I think. Try it.

BTW I hate chocolate chips in my oatmeal cookies!!! Oatmeal goes with cinnamon and apples only in my book!
