18:04:43 -0500 I don't know if what follows is really low in calories
but they are low in fat if you leave out the chocolate chips and use
some sultanas/raisins instead which is very nice too. A recipe follows
for low fat cookies, a recipe I modified from a great recipe for
choc-chip cookies. Apart from being low in fat (how low depends on
whether or not you include chocolate chips and how much if you do)
they are also very high in fibre and are very nutritious. Beat
together eggs, vanilla, apple sauce and pear juice concentrate. In a
separate bowl, mix together the flour, oats, wheatgerm and cereal or
bran. Stir these into the egg mixture until well combined. Mix in the
bicarb of soda mixture. This is the point at which you can add
whatever you like: 2 cups choclate chips OR sultanas OR raisins OR
other dried fruits (tropical ones are nice too) OR nuts of your choice
OR preserved ginger OR anything you fancy OR any combination of the
above. Stir the chocolate chips or other additions into the mixture.
Drop tablespoons of the mixture onto greased and lined baking trays
and bake in a preheated 190C/375F oven for about 10 - 12 minutes. Let
cool on a rack and store in an airtight tin. Makes about 40. Note:
These cookies have no added cane sugar....I personally think they
would be better if you use 1 cup of brown sugar or 2/3 cup honey
instead of the juice concentrate...I think this is better for the
taste and the texture although they are delicious either way. Whatever
you use, you aren't adding any fat so it's OK. This makes them higher
in calories though but in any case, they are very nice if you want
nutritious, high fibre cookies. REC.FOOD.RECIPES ARCHIVES /COOKIES
