- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3.9 oz no-sugar-added applesauce (individual serving size)
- 2 egg whites
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup Splenda (or preferred sweetener)
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips (such as Guittard Extra Dark Chocolate)
Instructions:
- Preparation: Preheat your air fryer to 325°F (162°C) or your regular oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and Splenda. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the egg, egg whites, vanilla extract, and no-sugar-added applesauce until well combined.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the egg mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir gently until the mixture is moistened, making approximately 20-30 stirs.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Once the dough is formed, gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Form Dough Balls: Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of dough and form them into tablespoon-sized balls. Place the dough balls onto the prepared cookie sheet, leaving space between each cookie for expansion during baking.
- Baking Directions:
- Air Fryer Method: Air fry the cookies at 325°F (162°C) for 6-8 minutes or until the tops are nice and golden brown.
- Regular Oven Method: Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 12-14 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
- Cool and Serve: Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy these delicious treats as a snack or dessert!
