Steps:
- Directions, Oven at 350 degrees, have a baking pan ready.
- Mix the dry ingredients together, add the oil and apple sauce and mix.
- Separate about 2 cups of the mixture. Put the mixture into a pan or two - we used 1 14"x12" pan. You can grease the sides of the pan, but it isn't necessary on the bottom.
- You want to pack the mixture down and have it be about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread on the preserves and then crumble the remaining dry mixture on the top.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
- Let cool 10+ minutes and enjoy.
- Oats & whole wheat are good for fiber, the soy adds some protein, and the apple sauce is a good partial substitute for oil/butter, keeping it pretty moist.

- 2. In large bowl combine sugars, yogurt, egg whites, applesauce, milk and vanilla. Mix well.
- 3. In separate bowl combine flours, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; stir together well.
- 4. Add dry ingredients to yogurt mixture and stir together well (by hand). Stir in oats, diced fruits, and almonds.
- 5. Spread dough in an ungreased, 9" x 13" pan. Bake 28 - 32 minutes until golden brown. Cool bars completely before cutting into bars.
Tips:

- Press the batter firmly into the pan: This will help the bars hold together better.
- Bake the bars until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
- Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help them hold their shape.
