The recipe doesn't give an amount for the applesauce so I used 1/4 cup as a standard egg replacement. I also added two tablespoons of molasses 1 cup shredded coconut and 2/3 cup chopped pecans. The cookies are crisp on the outside and chewy inside. Perfect chocolate chip cookies. Read More

The first batch was too soft so I added more 1/4 C more flour. And another pinch of baking soda to the remaining batter. The rest cooked up much better. Still a soft cookie but not a pancake. The flavor was excellent. My daughter likes to eat the cookie dough so great that it does not contain eggs. I will probably add a 1/2 C of flour to the whole batch next time. Or could decrease the coconut oil a little. Read More

I make this recipe and I follow the recommendation from previous comment to used 1/4 cup of apple sauce and I did. I still need to add 1 tbs of flour because I find my mix to soft and came out perfect however when I try I find for my self to sweet. I make some with dry cranberries for my husband he like it but he find it to soft but good. I divide the mix in tree and my last one was cranberries with walnuts and oh yes! that one are very delicious we both approved it! Read More

I posted this recipe. It is a 1/2 cup applesauce. Leave them on the pan for 10 minutes, then put them on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. They should then be fluffy and hold together well. Read More

Like others I used 1/4 cup applesauce and instead of white sugar used truvia baking blend sweetener (equivalent was 2T and 2t). Otherwise I just added to it for fun - 1/4 cup dutch cocoa 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts. Came out rich and lovely. Read More

Hi, I posted this recipe. The applesauce should be 1/2 cup. Since posting this recipe, I have amended it and increased the flour to 1 1/2 cups (one and a half). This makes the cookie less flat. Read More
