Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liner.
  • In a stand mixer, or a large mixing bowl with a hand mixer, beat softened butter, and brown sugar for 1-2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and beat until combined. Add applesauce, molasses and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, oat flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Add flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. Add the oats and mix on low again until combined. The dough will be really sticky. Chill the dough for 30-60 minutes so that the cookies won't spread too much.
  • Use a 2 tablespoon size cookie scoop to drop the cookies onto your prepared pan. Bake 10-12 minutes or until the edges start to look golden brown. Be careful not to overbake- it's ok if they still look a little soft. They will continue to bake on the sheet after you remove them from the oven. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack.
  • While the cookies are baking, you can make the icing. Whisk together powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl until smooth. Spoon into a plastic ziploc bag and cut off a small hole in the corner. Once the cookies have cooled, drizzle a small amount of icing on top of cookies. Enjoy!

Notes

You can make your own oat flour by pulsing oats in a food processor or blender until it reaches flour consistency.
