Directions
Preheat oven to 375℉ (190℃).
Combine applesauce, sugar, egg whites, milk and vanilla in a mixing bowl; whisk until smooth.
Add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, cloves and zest; stir just to mix.
Stir in oats and raisins.
Coat three cookie sheets with cooking spray.
This is unnecessary with nonstick pans.
Spoon the batter onto the cookie sheets, 2 heaping tablespoons at a time, leaving 3 inches between cookies.
Gently flatten each cookie with a wet spatula.
Bake 12 to 14 minutes, until firm and lightly browned on the bottom.
Watch closely; they burn faster than butter-based cookies.
Let cool on the cookie sheet 1 minute, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
