Ingredients
- 1. A generous portion of quick oats, about 1 and 1/4 cups,
- 2. A mound of white whole wheat flour, measuring 1 cup,
- 3. 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder for that perfect rise,
- 4. Sprinkled with 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of aromatic ground cinnamon,
- 5. A pinch of kosher salt, about 1/2 teaspoon,
- 6. A sweet infusion of honey, precisely 1/2 cup's worth,
- 7. A dollop of unsweetened applesauce, approximately 1/4 cup,
- 8. Melted and cooled unsalted butter, precisely 4 tablespoons,
- 9. A single large egg to bind it all together,
- 10. A drop of vanilla extract, exactly 1 teaspoon for flavor,
- 11. If desired, a scattering of dark chocolate chips, around 1/3 cup,
- 12. And if you prefer, a handful of chopped walnuts, about 1/4 cup for crunch.
Step 1
In a spacious bowl, combine oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and kosher salt by whisking them together until well blended.
Step 2
In another bowl, mix honey, applesauce, butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Combine this mixture with the dry ingredients in the large bowl, stirring until just mixed. Then, gently fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
Step 3
Allow the batter to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. You can also refrigerate it for up to 3 days for a deeper flavor development.
Step 4
When you're prepared to bake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and position a rack in the center. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 5
Take out the chilled dough from the refrigerator and let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes if it's too stiff. Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop 1 1/2-inch balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is enough space between each cookie. Lightly press down on each cookie with your fingers to flatten them to 3/4-inch thickness.
Step 6
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9 to 10 minutes, or until they turn golden, set on top, and firm around the edges.
Step 7
Once baked, place the baking sheet on a wire rack. Allow the cookies to cool on the sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to the wire rack to cool completely.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Embrace the power of airtight containers to keep your cookies fresh and chewy, sealing in their delightful honey and oat flavors.
- 2. Elevate your storage game by layering parchment paper between each layer of cookies to prevent sticking and maintain their perfect texture.
