1 3/4 cup quick-cooking oats
1 1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 large egg
3/4 cup applesauce
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, combine oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix well and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine sugars with an electric mixer on medium speed. Add butter and beat to form a grainy paste. Add egg and applesauce, and blend until smooth. Add flour mixture, chocolate chips, raisins and walnuts. Blend at low speed just until combined.
Drop dough by tablespoons onto lightly greased cookie sheets, 2" apart. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until light brown. Immediately transfer to a cool, flat surface.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
