The ingredients for Leann's Favorite Healthy Oatmeal Cookies are:

* *Margarine-like spread 1/4 cup
* Applesauce, unsweetened, 1/4 cup
* Baking Soda, 1/2 tsp

* *Whole Wheat Flour, 1 cup
* Cranberries, dried, sweetened (craisins), 1/2 cup

Here is how you make Leann's Favorite Healthy Oatmeal Cookies:

Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Mix all the ingredients EXCEPT the oats, flour and add-ins (pecans, chips and dried fruit). Once that is mixed thoroughly sift in the flour and then add the oats and fully incorporate. Then quickly stir in the add-ins but don't over mix. Drop the dough by rounded spoonfuls about 2 inches apart on a cookies sheet. (I use parchment paper to keep them from sticking or you can use a silpat if you have one - they are cool!) Bake until light brown which takes about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove them from the cookie sheet to a cooling rack if you have one or pull the parchment off the pan onto the counter to let them cool completely. This recipe makes about 2 dozen cookies. One serving is one cookie. Number of Servings: 24Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ACADEMY252.
