Equipment
- 2 mixing bowls
- Handheld electric mixer
- Large cookie sheet
- Oven
Ingredients
- ¼ cup or ½ stick Butter softened or microwave for 20 seconds
- 97.5 grams or ¾ cup Whole Wheat Flour (I used atta/chapati flour)
- 94.5 grams or ¾ cup Quinoa Flour
- ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- ⅛ teaspoon Baking Soda
- ⅛ teaspoon Salt
- 75 grams or ⅜ cups firmly packed Brown Sugar
- ¼ cup Nutella
- ⅓ cup Apple Sauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray and keep aside.
- In a bowl, mix together the flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- Take another large bowl, beat together butter and brown sugar until creamy.
- Add Nutella, applesauce and vanilla extract and beat well.
- Add flour mixture and beat until the flour is just incorporated.
- Using a table spoon or an ice cream scoop, scoop out dough and place it on the cookie sheet. If using an ice-cream scoop, take about ½ a scoop per cookie. Check notes.
- Dampen fingers and lightly shape and flatten the cookies.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes until cookies are set. I baked for 15 minutes.
- Cool the cookies completely on the cookie sheet and store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Size of the cookies - The cookies in the picture are slightly bigger than the actually size of cookies. For the first 4 cookies I used ¾ of a scoop and for the rest I used ½ a scoop. Smaller cookies looked more appetizing than the bigger ones. I would say ½ a scoop would yield 16 cookies and using ¾ of scoop per cookie would yield about 10 cookies.
- Temperatures - Temperature of ovens vary from oven to oven. Check cookies after 10 minutes and continue to bake if needed.
