Not Your Grandma’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Put the rolled oats and whole wheat flour in the food processor.
1 cup rolled oats
Blend until powdery. It should only take about a minute.
Dump the flour/oat mixture into a large bowl and whisk in the baking soda, baking powder, and nutmeg.
1 cup white whole wheat flour,1 teaspoon baking soda,1 teaspoon baking powder,¼ teaspoon nutmeg
Put the beans (without the liquid) in the food processor with the applesauce, honey and vanilla.
1 15 oz can of butter beans drained,¼ cup unsweetened applesauce,¼ cup honey,2 teaspoon vanilla
Blend until smooth.

Pour the bean mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Mix together adding about 4 tablespoons of the bean liquid–enough to get a dough consistency out of the batter.
Add the chips and mix in.
¼ cup MINI-chocolate chips
Drop the batter by the tablespoon on a greased (non-stick spray) or parchment lined cookie sheet flattening a bit. Bake for 13-15 minutes until the cookies brown and the bottoms are golden.
NOTES
At this moment the Little Guy came home from school. He added an additional 3 chips to the batter and was CONVINCED that’s what made them SO good. It was hysterical
