Healthy Cookies


This is a remake of a Jessica Seinfeld recipe that is in her book "Deceptively Delicious". Basically I altered the recipe to meet the contents of my pantry.

The alterations I made are marked with an asterisk.

"Oatmeal Raisin Cookies"

1 c. 8 Grain Hot Cereal (Dry)*
1 c. Wheat Pastry Flour*
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp. Cinnamon
3/4 c. lightly packed brown sugar
6 Tbsp. Butter*
1 Egg White
1/2 c. Banana Puree
1/2 c. Yellow Squash Puree*
1 Large Egg White
1 Chopped Fuji Apple*

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two cookie/baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Combine flour, cereal, baking soda and salt.

3. Beat butter and sugar together in a bowl, don't over mix. Add squash and banana, egg white, stir to blend. Add dry ingredients and apples.

4. Scoop them on the sheet about an inch apart. Bake about 12 minutes. Put on cooling rack about five minutes after taking out of the oven.

Enjoy!
