Ingredients:

1 3/4  cup raisins and /or 1/2 bar of Ghirardelli dark chocolate …I use both!

2 1/2 cups sugar free applesauce

3 eggs

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

2 1/2 cups wheat flour

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 Tbsp. baking powder

4 1/2 cups oatmeal

1/2-3/4 cup of  agave nectar

1/4 cup pecans , chopped /Can also try sunflower seeds!

Soak raisins in enough warm water to cover until plump, approx. 20 minutes, and then drain excess water.  Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.  Cream butter, applesauce, and agave.  Add eggs, and vanilla.  Add flour, baking soda, baking powder.  Then add oatmeal, raisins, chopped nuts, and chopped chocolate.  Mix until evenly distributed.  Spoon onto greased cookie sheet.  Bake for 10-12 minutes.  Makes 4-5 dozen cookies!
