“Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.” Martin Luther
When I came across this cookie in the September issue of Family Circle Magazine, I knew I would be trying it out. Oatmeal and apple? Count me in! With less than a cup of flour, 3 cups of rolled oats, egg whites, no leavening agent and chock full of chopped apples, it was a pretty healthy version of a classic oatmeal cookie. The recipe called for jumbo sizes but I made them regular-sized and got twice as many cookies. The texture is a bit granola-like with big soft chunks of apple and a nice spicy note. The maple glaze puts these over the top! Turn them into a fall ice cream sandwhich by pressing a scoop of maple-walnut ice cream between 2 cookies. A delicious back-to-school lunch box cookie with a big dose of fiber and fruit. A+
