- ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup applesauce
- 1 ¼ cups dark brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup cinnamon sugar, for rolling
- ¾ cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.

Resting the dough enhances the flavors and improves texture.
Chilling the dough prevents the cookies from spreading too much while baking.
For added flavor, consider mixing in nuts or chocolate chips.
