Whole Wheat Honey Oatmeal Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
4 tablespoons toasted wheat germ
1 1/2 cups rolled oats (I prefer old-fashioned)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (fresh-grated is best)
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup walnuts (toasted)
3 ounces dark chocolate chips

Preparation

Preheat oven to 335 degrees. It is better to use a slightly cooler oven for honey cookies. If you only use brown sugar, use 350 degrees.
Cream butter and sugar and then add other wet ingredients.
Mix dry ingredients (not add ins) and add to the wet with a hand mixer.
Add the add ins and mix with a spatula.
Drop large spoonsful on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes.
