Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup Oat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Low-fat margarine (or light butter)
• 0.25 cup Mini dark chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a separate larger bowl, combine the coconut sugar, unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, water, and low-fat margarine. Mix until well combined and smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, let it rest for 5 minutes to firm up a bit.

Step 5

Fold in the mini dark chocolate chips (if using).

Step 6

Using a teaspoon or cookie scoop, drop small portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the cookies are firm to the touch.

Step 8

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Enjoy your low-fat crispy cookies with a cup of tea or coffee as a delightful snack or dessert!
