Recipe : Chocolate Apple Bars

Your kitchen will be filled with the heady aromas of chocolate and cinnamon when you
bake up these wonderful, chewy bars. They're perfect for a lunch-bag treat.

Makes 8 servings

1 cup minus 1 tablespoon whole- wheat flour
1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup reduced-calorie tub margarine
1 cup unsweetened cinnamon-flavored applesauce
1 small McIntosh apple, pared, cored and finely chopped
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons golden raisins
3 ounces quick or old-fashioned oats
1 ounce semisweet chocolate mini morsels

Preheat oven to 350o F. Spray an 11 x 17" baking pan with nonstick cooking
spray.
In medium bowl, whisk together whole-wheat and all-purpose flours, baking soda,
cinnamon, nutmeg and salt; set aside.
In large bowl, with electric mixer on high speed, beat sugar and margarine until
light and fluffy. Gradually add flour mixture, alternating with applesauce, until
blended. Stir in apple, raisins, oats and chocolate morsels.
Spread batter evenly into prepared pan. Bake 30-40 minutes, until golden. Cool
completely on wire rack before cutting into 8 equal bars.
