I made these cookies as an experiment trying to make a healthy cookie, with whole wheat and no oil.. they turned out wonderful the whole family loves them. They are a little sticky when done but they taste great.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt; set aside.

In a medium bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup of applesauce and brown sugar. Add pumpkin, egg yolk only (save egg white), and 1 teaspoon vanilla to applesauce mixture, and beat until creamy. Mix in dry ingredients. Beat egg white until stiff and then fold into mixture. Drop on cookie sheet by tablespoonfuls.
