Cookies For Breakfast

Mmmm! I just made these cookies for the first time and lost count of how many I ate! They're so good and even better, healthy! I can't wait to serve the kids cookies for breakfast! I'll be the coolest mom ever;) (I pulled this out of a Nick Jr. magazine.)
2 cups all purpose flour
1 &1/4 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 &1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup store bought applesauce
1/4 cup orange juice
3 tblsp unsalted butter, melted
3 lg egg whites
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup raisins
1/4 cup chopped dried apricots
Heat oven to 350*. Coat 2 baking sheets with cooking spray. Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda and powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add the applesauce, juice, butter, egg whites, and vanilla. Mix with a spoon to blend; stir in raisins and apricots. For each cookie, drop 2 generous tblsp of batter onto baking sheets. Bake 10-11 minutes, until just set and lightly browned around the edges. Transfer to wire racks to cool. Store in an airtight container up to 3 days.
