Ingredients
1 cup boiling water
1 cup old fashioned oats (divided use)
1 1/4 cup sorghum flour
3/4 cup oat flour (divided use)
1 tsp xanthan gum
2 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 + 1/4 cup brown sugar (divided use)
1/2 cup applesauce
1 Tbsp cinnamon
4 Tbsp light margarine (we used Fleischmann’s Light)
Directions
In bowl, combine boiling water and 1/2 cup oatmeal; set aside.
Separately, prepare topping. Squish together remaining 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1/4 cup oat flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and margarine. You’ll need to use your fingers at the end. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix all remaining ingredients except the apple. Stir in the soft oatmeal, then stir in the apple last.
Pan spray an 8×8″ pan, and spoon in batter. Smooth batter. Sprinkle topping over batter.
Bake at 350 °F for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
This stays moist for 2-3 days if the cut ends are covered.

Substitutions
Butter and Margarine: Butter is a dairy product made from cow’s milk. Margarine typically contains milk or soy, but there are milk-free and soy-free versions available.
Gluten: Gluten is a protein found in specific grains (wheat, spelt, kamut, barley, rye). Other grains are naturally gluten-free but may have cross-contact with gluten-containing grains. Look for certified gluten-free products if you need to avoid gluten. Find out more about wheat and gluten substitutions [1].
