Applesauce Oat Breakfast Nuggets

Ingredients

*Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Prepare baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
Stir together oats, flour, and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a bowl large enough to hold all ingredients, whisk together applesauce, vanilla, sugar, salt, oil, and egg if using.
Add dry ingredients. When combined add fruit and nuts.
Scoop onto cookie sheets into 2-3 tablespoon size mounds.
Press flat to about 1/3-inch.
Place in oven for 9-10 minutes.
Cool on a wire rack.
Once cooled, these can be stored in freezer for a quick snack.
