Begin by setting your oven temperature to 350°F. Prepare two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper and giving them a light mist of cooking spray.

In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt, then mix these dry ingredients together thoroughly.

In a separate bowl, use a whisk to blend the sugars, oil, egg, applesauce, and vanilla until the mixture becomes light and airy.

Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients in two parts, whisking until the dough is completely combined. If the mixture appears more crumbly than smooth, add a few drops of water at a time (ONLY if necessary) until it reaches a smoother consistency.
