Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Packed light brown sugar
- 1 large Egg white
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0 Non-stick cooking spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Step 4
Add the egg white and vanilla extract to the applesauce mixture, and blend until smooth.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients, and stir until just combined to form a dough. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips with a spatula or spoon until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving approximately 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 9-10 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown. The centers may appear slightly undercooked, but they will continue to set while cooling.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your deliciously chewy, low-fat chocolate chip cookies!
