We started gathering ingredients and I realized I was missing a few like eggs and baking powder so we decided to make a few adjustments along the way. In the end we were very pleased with our cookies.<\/p>\n<p>Here is our recipe.<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients.<\/p>\n<p>That looks like a 1\/2 cup butter and it&#8217;s kinda soft.<br \/>\n1 unpacked cup of yellow sugar (because the store was out of brown).<br \/>\n1 prepackaged container of unsweetend apple sauce (about 1\/3 cup).<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp of (pre)tend vanilla (that&#8217;s what Aly calls it).<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp cinnamon (and a little extra because Nate wanted to).<br \/>\n1\/2 tsp kosher salt. (Why kosher I don&#8217;t know but I am told it is better for baking.)<br \/>\n1 (Not precise) cup of all purpose flour.<br \/>\n1 1\/3 cups raisins (we use sultana raisin because they are cheap and my kids eat a lot, hence the extra 1\/3 Nate added to the recipe).<br \/>\n1 1\/2 cups quick oats (it should have been rolled oats but I didn&#8217;t have them in my cupboard so quick it was).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Instructions.<\/p>\n<p>1. Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.<br \/>\n2. Cream together butter and sugar (or mix it till it looks well mixed and you&#8217;re tired of waiting for it to cream.<br \/>\n3. Add apple sauce, blend until completely mixed.<br \/>\n4. Mix in vanilla, cinnamon, and kosher salt.<br \/>\n5. Now mix in flour (try not to mix to long) just until moist.<br \/>\n6. Finally add oats and raisins. Stir only until mixed in.<br \/>\n7. Place golf ball sized balls on an ungreased cookie sheet and gently smush down a little. I like to use parchment paper for easier clean up (and I seem to burn things less when I use it).<br \/>\n8. Bake for about 10 minutes or until they just begin to brown on the bottom.<br \/>\n9. Let cool for at least 5-10 minutes to set (and so you don&#8217;t burn yourself with tastiness).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2438\" src=\"http:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056.jpg\" alt=\"20150216_194056\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056-144x144.jpg 144w, https:\/\/mic.globaljunkdrawer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/20150216_194056-900x900.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So Aly Nate and I decided to bake some cookies today.
