While cleaning out my candy box yesterday, I found some jelly beans that I have since eastern!
I totally forgot about them and no one really eats them here, because there is too much good baked stuff in this house.
So the only choice I had besides throwing them away, was baking something with them. And since I was running out of cookies anyway, I just baked some healthy applesauce cookies with jelly beans in them ;)

They look nice and taste funny ;)
Definitely not what you expect, if someone is asking you if you want to eat a cookie! Cookie texture with jelly bean taste is definitely something special and for sure wonderful for every kids birthday!

What you need

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup quick oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 egg whites (or 1 egg)
1/4 cup applesauce
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup jelly beans, cut in pieces

How you make it

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F
  • Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
  • In a large bowl mix all ingredients besides the jelly beans together and stir until well combined (dough will be very thick)
  • Fold in jelly bean pieces
  • Drop on baking sheet with a tablespoon
  • Bake for 10 minutes
  • Let cool completely
