I was happy to find this recipe, but had to make changes for grand kids. Because the boys don't like nuts and raisins in theirs and I have a little granddaughter who loves raisins and nuts, I plump the raisins with water in the microwave and use an immersion blender on them with the nuts, applesauce and other things I have like coconut or dates. Then I divide the batter and mix chocolate chips in the boys' part. They love them.

Love these. Have made them twice now and they're worth the 20 minutes it takes from start to out of the oven! They definitely only make about 2 dozen or less but they're amazing!

LOVING This Cookie! Thank you so much superblondieno2!<br/>Ok, so far have only used chocolate chips instead of raisins. Used 1 whole egg and BUTTER. No Margarine is allowed in my fridge! So good, could not stop eating them. They were GONE in record time. No problem with texture or bake time. They smell so good, was waiting for them to be baked. No danger of burning here!<br/>When I use the raisins, will try apple butter instead of apple sauce, decrease the sugar and decrease the cinnamon. Great recipe - EASY as can be!

These were GREAT! I was looking for a quick and healthy cookie and these sounded good! I did make a few changes intentionally and a few unintentionally.... first I doubled the recipe. I used extra cinnamon (can't get enough of that!) reduced the sugar to 1 1/4 cup for a double batch, used pumpkin instead of applesauce (was out) used 1 whole egg for the double batch instead of 4 egg whites and used 2 TBSP melted butter (don't use marg.) and 2 TBSP olive oil and last but not least, at my childrens request used choc. chips instead of raisins ( I would have prefered the raisins)....the unintentional change was leaving out the baking soda.... I just forgot, in too big of a hurry I guess. But they turned out delicious anyway! Thanks for a great recipe!!

These were pretty good. I liked them enough for healthyish cookies. I was skeptical about the consistency when I put them in the oven and was going to add more flour but glad I didn't because they came out the perfect consistency - soft and chewy. My kids seemed to like them as much as the full fat stuff (except dd that saw me put in the apple sauce!)
