If you are looking for a healthy cookie recipe, you are at the right place. These cookies are a treat in the true sense!! A guilt free cookie - mildly sweet with the goodness of oats, cinnamon and ginger. The light gingery taste and a gentle bite into the tiny pineapple pieces brings out the unique blend of flavors.
I was pleasantly surprised (and delighted too) when my 9 year old picky eater was stuffing herself with these cookies. I never imagined her to like these ginger flavored cookies. So enjoy these cookies for the 6th day of BM #7.
Ingredients -
Whole Wheat Flour 1/2 cup
Quick Cooking Rolled Oats 1/2 cup
Baking Powder 1/2 tsp
Salt 1/4 tsp
Sugar 1/4 cup (I would reduce by 2 Tbsp next time)
Ginger Powder 1 tsp
Cinnamon Powder 1 tsp
Apple Sauce 6 Tbsp (I used the sweetened cinnamon flavor)
*Minced Pineapple 1/4 cup
* I am sure pineapple can be replaced with any other fruit bits of your choice. I am imagining mango here (oh oh and raisins or tutti frutti or any dried fruit) :) .
Method Of Preparation -
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Prepare a cookie tray by lining it with parchment paper (or foil and greasing it).
In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients (dry ingredients first followed by the wet ingredients).
Mix well to form a stiff dough.
Scoop out tablespoon of the batter and flatten them to 1/4th of an inch thickness. Arrange them on the prepared cookie tray about an inch apart.
Bake for about 22 min and remove when the bottoms are lightly browned and the tops are just about done.
I tasted a small piece at 18 min and thought they were not done yet and so baked for 4 more minutes.
Let them cool for about 10 min on a wire rack and indulge!
I served it with coffee/tea.
