I’m working my way through my Betty Crocker Cooky Book and adapting the recipes to be a little bit healthier. This is my version of the Applesauce Cookie recipe. I halved the recipe, which made about 4 dozen.

1 stick butter
1/8 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup water
1 cup applesauce
1 3/4 cup King Arthur 1 to 1 Baking flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 apple, peeled and diced

Preheat oven to 400.
Beat butter, both sugars and egg thoroughly. Stir in water and applesauce. Add flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves and mix. Stir in diced apples.
Drop rounded spoonfuls onto greased or parchment paper lined baking sheets. Bake for 10 – 12 minutes.
