Zucchini Oatmeal Cookies

Okay - these cookies, in my version, without the chips, are pretty much fat free.  But I always have to include the chips.  I'm kinda bad that way!

1/2 c mashed pinto beans
1/4 c applesauce
1/2 c white sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
2 egg whites
1 t vanilla extract
1 1/2 c grated zucchini
1 1/2 c flour (I used half wheat pastry, half white)
1/2 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon
1 c quick cooking oats
1 c low fat granola
1/2 c butterscotch chips
1/2 c mini chocolate chips

Cream together the beans, applesauce and sugar until fluffy.  Beat in the egg whites and vanilla extract.  Stir in the zucchini, flour, soda, cinnamon, oats and granola until well blended. Then stir in the chips.

Drop by the teaspoon onto a sprayed cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 10 - 12 minutes. 

Makes 2 dozen cookies.
