Preparation time: 25 minutes
 Cooking time: 1 hour
 Yield: 9 servings
 1/2 cup (1 stick) canola or corn-oil margarine, softened
 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
 1 egg plus 1 egg white, lightly beaten
 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
 1/2 cup uncooked rolled oats
 1 teaspoon each: baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon
 1/4 teaspoon salt
 2 medium baking apples, peeled, cored, chopped
 1/4 cup pecans, chopped, toasted
 Vanilla glaze:
 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
 1 tablespoon hot water
 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
 1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch baking pan with a non-stick
 vegetable coating; set aside.
 2. Beat together margarine, applesauce, sugar, egg mixture and vanilla in
 large bowl of electric mixer until light and fluffy. Combine dry
 ingredients in a separate, medium mixing bowl. Add dry ingredients to egg
 mixture and mix just until combined. Stir in apples and nuts.
 3. Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the
 center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool completely on wire rack.
 4. For glaze, combine all glaze ingredients until smooth. Spread or drizzle
 over cooled brownies.
