Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it's hot enough for baking.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baking Sheet

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined.

  2. 4

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.

  3. 5

    Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined; do not overmix.

Adding Mix-ins

  1. 6

    Fold in Add-ins

    Gently fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, chopped nuts, and oats until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Baking

  1. 7

    Scoop Cookies

    Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.

  2. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the tops look set.

  3. 9

    Cool

    Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
