Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, yogurt, applesauce, sugar and maple syrup. Mix until combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing in between. Then mix in the vanilla. Set aside.

In a medium sized bowl combine the dry ingredients (oats, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and sea salt).

Mix the dry mixture in with the wet mixture. Blend until thoroughly combined. Add in butterscotch chips.

Drop the dough by the tablespoon onto parchment lined cookie sheets. Bake in the 350 F oven for 10 minutes. They may take longer depending on how crunchy you want them. I like my cookies soft and chewy.

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to sit on the baking sheets for a couple of minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool.
