Applesauce Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease baking sheets.

Combine the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, cloves, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Mix well.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the margarine, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat on medium speed with an electric mixer until light and creamy. Add the egg and beat until combined.

With the mixer running on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and applesauce in 1/2 cup increments, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, until the mixture is combined.

Stir the raisins and oats in by hand.

Drop the cookie batter by teaspoonfuls onto the greased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between the cookies. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake at 375 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until done.

Remove the applesauce oatmeal raisin cookies from the oven and let cool completely on wire racks before storing in an airtight container.
