Cinnamon Applesauce Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup shortening
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup applesauce
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 cup raisins
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the ideal temperature of 325 degrees Fahrenheit (165 degrees Celsius).
2
To ensure a smooth baking process, lightly coat your cookie sheets with a non-stick cooking spray.
3
Using an electric mixer in a large bowl, cream together sugar and butter until they reach a light and fluffy consistency.
4
Next, incorporate the egg into the mixture, followed by the addition of applesauce until it is fully incorporated and blended.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cloves.
6
Combine these dry ingredients with the applesauce mixture until well combined.
7
Fold in the walnuts and raisins to add texture and flavor to your cookies.
8
Spoonfuls of dough should be dropped 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets to allow for even baking.
9
Bake in your preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, taking approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
10
After removing the cookies from the oven, allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a brief moment before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
