Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F.
Line a brownie pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the sides; set aside. If not using parchment paper, you can also grease the pan with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl combine flour, salt, baking soda, oats and light brown sugar; mix using a whisk until thoroughly combined.
Add pieces of butter to the mix; cut in the butter using a pastry blender, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbles. You can also cut in the butter with a fork or use your hands.
In a separate mixing bowl combine applesauce, cranberries, and spices; mix until combined.
Set aside 1-cup of the crumbles mixture.
Transfer the rest of the crumbles mixture to the previously prepared baking pan; press it evenly onto the bottom of the pan.
Bake in the oven for 8 minutes.
Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes.
Add the applesauce mixture over the baked crust.
Sprinkle the reserved crumbles mixture over the top.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
