Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, blend applesauce, melted butter, egg, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth.
Combine the wet mixture with dry ingredients until just mixed; the dough will be sticky.
Fold in dark chocolate chips, raisins, and nuts.
Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Scoop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, flattening each ball gently.
Bake for about 9 to 10 minutes until golden around the edges.
Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
