Busters Recipes

Applesauce Cookies

3 cups rolled oats
1 cup + 2 Tbs brown rice flour
3/4 cup date sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/3 cup chopped dates
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
3/4 cup safflower oil
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat over to 350F. Lightly oil or line a baking
sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, combine oats, flour, sugar, dates, salt,
dates and pecans. Mix thoroughly, using your hands to
separate dates and mix ingredients. Stir in applesauce,
oil and vanilla and mix well.

Spoon or scoop rounded tablespoons onto prepared sheet
and flatten slightly into disks about 1/2 inch thick.
Bake about 10 minutes, until edges begin to brown.
Repeat with remaining dough.

Makes about 5 dozen small cookies.
