Applesauce oatmeal cookies are soft, fluffy and cake like cookies made with applesauce and oatmeal. These applesauce cookies are easy to make and are a lovely fall cookie.
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream together the cubes of butter and light brown sugar on medium speed for 2 - 3 minutes.
Mix the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined. Scoop the cookie dough into tablespoon sized cookie balls, cover the cookie dough and transfer to the fridge to chill for 1 - 2 hours.
Preheat the oven to 375 F (190 C) for about 20-30 minutes before baking the cookies. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the applesauce oatmeal cookie dough balls onto the lined baking sheet about 3 inches (8 cm) apart.
