Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 1 4 oz container of apple sauce
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 medium apple diced
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 c white chocolate chips
  • ½ tsp baking soda

Instructions
 

  • Set your oven to 350 degrees and let it heat up.
  • Using either a stand mixer or hand held mixer, combine room temperature butter and apple sauce. 
  • Add vanilla, brown sugar and granulated sugar, mix for 1-2 mins and then add eggs and beat until smooth.
  • Take medium apple and dice. Add this to mixture until combined, folding it in with rubber spatula is recommended but can use stand mixer or hand held mixer as well.
  • Add flour and baking soda and mix until smooth, do not over mix this step as it will lead to toughening of the dough.
  • Add white chocolate chips and mix until all of the chips are combined
  • Use a cookie scoop or a spoon to create even 1.5” balls. Place on top of baking mat or parchment paper on your cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes depending on how crispy you like your cookies! Watch for a light brown edge or top of cookie
  • Enjoy! 

Notes

Add a sprinkle of kosher salt to the batter to bring out the flavors. So good!
