If I tell you there is a delicious, fluffy completely addicting cooking that has NO SUGAR would you try it? Because these applesauce cookies are just that. Sweet, moist full of flavor and chocolate perfect cookies without any sugar.

My kids ate them so quickly! They had NO IDEA these cookies were different than others. Let me show you how fun and simple they are to make.

Applesauce Cookies

Let us start with the Applesauce. I used some homemade applesauce that I made just that week in the instant pot. Click here for the recipe, it is very healthy and easy. Because the applesauce is the sweetener I feel that it is important to have QUALITY sweet applesauce. My homemade applesauce had no added sugar, but was made with fresh, sweet apples so it was plenty sweet.

Step 1: Cream the butter, eggs and together. Then slow add flour

Step 2: While that is creaming together in a small separate bowl mix baking soda together with your applesauce. A nice little fizzing action will happen.

Step 3: Incorporate the applesauce mixture into the flour and creamed ingredients. After its well mixed gently mix in the chocolate chips.

Applesauce cookie batter

This batter is similar to a pumpkin cookie batter. It’s really sticky, not one that you can roll into balls. so just plop a spoonful on to a cookie sheet. Space them far enough apart to allow the cookie to rise and spread as it bakes.

Bake them for about 12 minutes, when they are turning a light golden color. (clearly you can see we use extra chocolate chips)

My entire family loves these cookies and they devoured the entire batch in 2 days this last time I made them. Depending on how large you make them it makes about 3 dozen.Plenty to share…if you are feeling generous.
