I'm looking for a classic oatmeal cookie recipe made with prune juice i
it. I was only able to find one called a healthier oatmeal apple cookie
which had apples in it. They tasted okay, but weren't very sweet an
were very chewy. They also called for a lot of flour which you coul
taste in the finished product. The recipe I'm looking for would hav
been an older recipe. Or does anyone know how I would go abou
substituting it into a recipe? Thanks

Are you sure it was prune juice and not prune puree? A number of years ago,
maybe 20, I was forced to endure a super low-fat diet for a while. There
was a wide variety of baked goods that called for either applesauce or
pureed prunes to replace the fat.
A search for low-fat oatmeal cookies prunes will turn up a few choices; for
example,

Your average oatmeal cookie does not contain much liquid added. You
should add prune puree instead of juice. The reason you'd make an
oatmeal cookie with apple sauce, bananas, or vegetables is to reduce the
amount of fat, sugar and eggs. It's a classic vegan trick. Just use that
recipe and substitute a bunch of prunes that have been processed in a
blender.

It ain't gonna look much like an oatmeal cookie and you might have to
give up your daytime job cause consuming all that fiber seems like a
dangerous thing to do. That's the breaks.

Just find a oatmeal raisin cookie recipe, and substitute diced prunes
for the raisins. You can probably even double the amount.

Prune juice isn't going to work. It should work in a cake recipe.
