Also, we don’t want to eliminate all fat from our diet – remember that canola oil is a healthy fat – mono and polyunsaturated fats and omega 3 fatty acids as well – it’s the kind we want to include more of in our diet! Removing it all and replacing it with applesauce in baked goods tends to make them gummy, and I’d imagine these would be no different.

Just made a batch with the kids after my husband (Yoni) sent me the link for the recipe – aside from asking for milk after the first bite, my kids loved them! I didn’t have the natural peanut butter (ran out), so used the light Kraft instead. Unbelievably moist, but also pretty sweet. Will definately try it with the natural stuff next time, but also wondering if you have ever tried substituting the oil for apple sauce? I think I might give this a try next time. Thanks for a great new recipe!
