Instructions
Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat an 8 or 9-inch square baking pan with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, combine the boiling water and oats and set aside for about 15 minutes to soften.
In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg and set aside.
Add the sugar, brown sugar, applesauce, oil and egg whites to the oat mixture and beat until well combined and creamy.
Add the flour mixture to the oat mixture and stir just until well combined. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 to 60 minutes for a 9-inch pan, or 55 to 65 minutes for an 8-inch pan.
While the cake is baking stir together the topping ingredients and set it aside.
Remove the cake from the oven and immediately spread the topping mixture evenly over the top of the hot cake.
Broil about 4 inches from heat, for 1 or 2 minutes, or jut until the topping is bubbly. Watch closely because the topping can burn easily.
Remove from the oven and place the pan on a wire rack to cool completely.
