Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Recipe submitted by: Allen Beechick, Santa

Ingredients:
3 cups oatmeal
2 eggs
¾ cup sugarless applesauce
¾ cup plain yogurt
½ cup sugarless peanut butter
½ cup clover honey
1 tsp. vanilla
½ cup chopped walnuts
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder
3 tsp. cinnamon
1 grated orange peel
¾ cup brown rice flour
1 cup (or more) dark chocolate chips
Optional: some dried apricots for topping
Instructions:
Don’t turn the oven on yet. First wash the orange
and dry it.
Then put the oatmeal into a mixing bowl. Add the wet
ingredients (eggs, applesauce, yogurt, peanut butter,
honey, vanilla). Mix and let it soak while you prepare
the rest.
Put the walnuts into a sealable plastic baggie and shut
it tight. With the peanut butter jar roll the walnuts
to crush them, turning the baggie over often. Use just
gentle pressure. When crushed finely, dump them into
the bowl.
Now grate the orange peel directly into the bowl. This
takes the most time and muscle.
Add the small dry ingredients (baking soda, baking powder,
cinnamon), and mix.
Now you can preheat the oven to 350°.
Mix in the rice flour and chocolate chips.
Put tin foil over two baking sheets. Lightly oil. Also
lightly oil a spoon. With a non-oiled spoon scoop out
some batter, and with the oiled spoon, scrape it off
onto the cookie sheet. Place them in rows 4 by 5 (total
20 cookies) on each cookie sheet. Optional: thinly slice
dried apricots and lightly smash a couple pieces
onto each cookie.
Bake at 350° for 13 minutes. While the first sheet
bakes, clean up your mess. Put the skinless orange into
the empty walnut baggie, and use it for lunch tomorrow.
While the second sheet bakes, eat the first batch. Take
the second batch to Monday night football. The guys will
think they are real cookies.
