And since fall is coming, think about making cookies with some of the seasonal ingredients coming around the bend, like this recipe from the Team Beachbody recipe archive for low-fat pumpkin cookies:
  • 1/2 cup plain, nonfat yogurt
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1-1/2 cups pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1/8 tsp. cloves
  • 1/8 tsp. ginger
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup white flour
  • 1/2 cup raisins or dates
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a mixing bowl, blend together first five ingredients. Mix in spices, oats, and baking powder; then fold in flour, raisins or dates, and nuts. Drop cookie dough by tablespoons onto a nonstick cookie sheet, and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Yields 2-1/2 dozen cookies.

Preparation Time: 15-20 minutes
Cooking Time: 10-12 minutes
