A light low fat low sugar version of the sweet traditional dessert. I adapted this recipe from fat-free archives online. I made this with whole wheat four and oat bran for a healthier treat but you can use regular all-purpose flour if you prefer.

Time 1h25m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup oat bran
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon skim milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup applesauce
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg white
fruit preserves (I like dates or prune or fig puree. I use no sugar added jam. Also good is plumped raisins soaked in) or pie filling (I like dates or prune or fig puree. I use no sugar added jam. Also good is plumped raisins soaked in)

Steps:

  • Mix applesauce, sugar and egg white. Mix flour, salt and baking powder and add to applesauce mixture. Add milk and vanilla,.
  • Mix well with hands. Form into a ball and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
  • Divide dough into 16 small balls. Roll out each ball to a 3.5 inch diameter circle (you will need extra flour for hands and board, since the dough is sticky).
  • Place in the center of each circle one (heaping) teaspoons of the filling.
  • Form triangles by folding over edges of circle and pinch to create three corners, leaving a small amount of the filling in the center uncovered.
  • Bake on a sprayed cookie sheet, at 375° F, 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.
