Low Fat Peanut Butter Cookies

• 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 cup ground flax seeds
• 1/2 cup quick oats
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 1 tablespoon applesauce
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup peanut butter, Organic Creamy Style

1. Preheat oven to 325u0b0F.
2. Then dump ingredients into a mixing bowl and stir. You will really need to work at getting the ingredients mixed well. I do a downward smashing motion with my spoon as I stir. You could even put your hands into the dough and kneed a little.
3. Drop 1 Tablespoon size mounds onto a greased cookie sheet, about 1 1/2 inches apart. Smash them down with a fork. Then sprinkle with course sugar if you like.
4. Bake for 10 - 15 minutes.
5. After they are baked let them cool for 15 minutes before you dig into They will be soft out of the oven and crisp up as they cool.
