Ingredients

High in protein, low in sugar and bursting with flavor, these cookies are worth adding to your dessert rotation. Serve them in August when blueberries are at their freshest for the best possible flavor or make them from frozen blueberries for a taste of summer in the winter cold.

1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
1 1/2 c. plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
1 lg. egg, beaten
1 t. vanilla
1 c. all-purpose flour
1 c. whole wheat flour
2 t. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
1 c. fresh blueberries
zest from 1 lemon

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Mix together the sugar, applesauce and yogurt. When well-blended, add egg and vanilla and mix well.
3. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the wet ingredients and combine thoroughly. Gently fold in the blueberries and lemon zest.
