Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup applesauce
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple
• 1/2 cup shredded carrots

Preheat your oven to 350. In a bowl, blend together the applesauce and brown sugar. Beat in the egg and add the pineapple, carrot, raisins, and walnuts. Sift in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon and blend until incorporated. Using an ice cream scoop, dump the dough onto a lined cookie sheet and bake for about 20 minutes or until the bases begin to darken.
