1/2 cup (125 mL) packed brown sugar
1/2 cup (125 mL) sweetened applesauce
1/4 cup (50 mL) vegetable oil
1 egg
1 egg white
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla
1 apple
1 cup (250 mL) all-purpose flour
1 cup (250 mL) quick-cooking rolled oats
1 tsp (5 mL) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2 mL) cinnamon
1/4 tsp (1 mL) baking soda
1/4 tsp (1 mL) salt
Pinch ground allspice
1/2 cup (125 mL) dried apples, chopped
1/2 cup (125 mL) chopped pecans
1/4 cup (50 mL) dried currants
Glaze:
2/3 cup (150 mL) icing sugar
1/4 tsp (1 mL) cinnamon
2-1/2 tsp (12 mL) apple juice or water
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla
Preparation:
In large bowl, whisk together brown sugar, applesauce, oil, egg, egg white and vanilla. Peel and grate apple; squeeze out liquid. Stir into applesauce mixture.
In separate bowl, whisk together flour, rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt and allspice; stir into applesauce mixture to make dough. Stir in dried apples, pecans and currants.
Drop by 1 tbsp (15 mL) onto 2 parchment paper-lined rimless baking sheets. Bake in top and bottom thirds of 350°F (180°C) oven for 15 to 17 minutes, rotating and switching pans halfway through, or until light golden on bottoms and edges. Transfer to racks; let cool completely.
Glaze: In small bowl, whisk icing sugar with cinnamon; whisk in apple juice and vanilla to make thick glaze. Spread by scant 1/4 tsp (1 mL) onto each cookie. Let stand until set, about 30 minutes. (Make-ahead: Store layered between waxed paper in airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 weeks.)
