½ cup unsweetened applesauce
½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 egg whites
½ tsp vanilla
¾ cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp salt
1½ cups "old-fashioned" oats
½ cup raisins

Preheat oven to 350°F

Combine applesauce and sugars. (Don't try to get sugar granules to dissolve.)

Add egg whites and vanilla and mix lightly.

Combine flour, soda, cinnamon, and salt; add to sugar mixture and mix lightly.

Stir in oats and raisins; mix well.

Rub a cold stick of butter over the bottom and sides of a 9x9-inch metal baking pan. (Adds insignificant amount of fat).

Bake 25-30 minutes. Turn out as soon as pan is cool enough to handle and finish cooling on wire rack. Cut into 16 squares.
