Bring applesauce to a boil in a small saucepan; remove from heat. Stir in oats and raisins; cover and let stand 20 minutes. Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy. Gradually add sugar, beating well. Add egg and beat well. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and ground cloves. Gradually add to creamed mixture; mix just until blended after each addition. Stir in applesauce mixture. Pour batter into a greased and floured 23 cm square pan; bake at 180ºC or 30 to 35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Hope you enjoy!!! Jan from the Beautiful Northwest ----
