Ingredients

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup old-fashioned (not quick-cooking) rolled oats
1/2 cup plain yogurt (not nonfat)
1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, coarsely grated (about 1 1/3 cups)
