1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

In a bowl, combine boiling water and oats; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In a mixing bowl, combine the sugars and applesauce; beat well. Add the egg, vanilla and oat mixture; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until combined. Fold in apple.
