Chewy Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies

Chewy Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies

Applesauce is super simple to make!  Since I love using up apples & not having to throw any in the compost pile, applesauce is a really easy way to turn those aging apples into something wonderful. Sometimes, like after Thanksgiving, I have way too much applesauce. In those moments, this recipe for Chewy Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies comes in handy. I can bake up a batch, let my family enjoy them for a day or so, & freeze the rest of the cookies for a later time.
