Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, and brown sugar. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, low-fat milk, and olive oil until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until it forms a dough. The dough should be slightly sticky but manageable.
Using a tablespoon, scoop small portions of the dough and roll them into balls with your hands.
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each one. Press them down gently with a fork to form biscuits.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cooled biscuits in an airtight container to maintain their crunchiness for up to a week.
