These Eggless Oatmeal Cookies are the perfect cookies to make when you want something homemade and not too sweet. With crisp edges and a soft and chewy texture, these classic cookies are perfect for school lunches, as an after work snack and when you want a little sweet treat.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheight and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until well combined with a hand mixer. Add the vanilla and applesauce and mix.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Drop 1.5 Tbsp. spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. This recipes makes approximately 19 cookies with a 1.5 Tbsp. cookie scoop.
Bake for 10-11 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Note: If you want the cookies to all be the same shape after baking, take to top of a mason jar lid, place it over the cookie and swirl it around in a circular motion for a few minutes. This will result in the perfect circular cookies.
Store your cookies in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
