A DATE WITH CINNAMON ~ HEALTHY SUGARFREE COOKIES!
Cookies!, again! and if you have had enough of my sinful, buttery pistachio cookies then do balance it out with this HEALTHY and most importantly SUGAR-FREE Apple-cinnamon-date combo, I am sure post diwali, these would be more than welcome!
This is a soft ,moist cookie, with the natural sweetness of dates AND honey and a dash of cinnamon flavor. I have used a combination of wholewheat and plain flour as well as apples to make it fibre rich.
Ingredients-
(makes 1 dozen)
- Dates- 1/2 cup (pitted and chopped)
- Apple- 1 , chopped
- Honey- 2 tbsp
- Egg- 1
- Wholewheat flour- 1 tbsp
- All purpose flour- 2 tbsp
- Baking powder- 1/2 tsp
- Milk- 2 tbsp
- Cinnamon- 1/4 tsp
- Oil- 1 tbsp
- Vanilla essence- 1/2 tsp
- a pinch of salt
Method-
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients together and mix well, drop teaspoonfuls onto greased baking sheets, bake for 15-20 minutes at 180 deg.C, till edges turn golden.

Deepa- thx ,dear.
One doubt - Do we need to peel the skin off the apple for this?
bindya looks you r a wonderfulll bakerr those lookkkk sooo yummyyyyy and i am not able to forget about your pistashio cookiess those lookss so beaitufullll
geeta- No you don't need to peel off the skin, because the skins of most vegetables and fruits have a lot of vitamins and in this case apple skin again has loads of fibre, and it is ALWAYS better to have the whole fruit.
sagari- Thanxxxx a lottt lol!
hey it sure sounds healthy n delicious to me :)
