Baby Food Cookies

They are actually "oatmeal apple baby food whole wheat breakfast cookies" but that's quite a mouthful (pun intended). I found a recipe at allrecipes.com that used pureed prunes in oatmeal cookies, which gave me the idea for the baby food. Judah helped me make and eat these. They freeze well and are great with yogurt on top. Nothing starts your day out right better than a warm cookie!

2 cups brown sugar
2 1/2 cups oats
4 cups whole wheat flour
1 T baking soda
1 t baking powder
1 t salt
2 1/2 t cinnamon
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup baby food prunes (I'll probably try carrots next batch)
2 T water
5 egg whites
4 T honey
2 t vanilla
1 large or 2 small apples, grated
1/4 cup walnuts - I left these out because of John Jay


•Preheat oven to 350˚
•Grease cookie sheet
•Stir dry ingredients together and make a well in center for liquid ingredients. Mix well, then stir in walnuts and apples.
•Roll into balls 2" apart and mash flat with a wet hand.
•Bake for 8 minutes.
Enjoy!
