Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chopped pineapple, honey, applesauce, egg, vanilla extract, and brown sugar until well blended.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the oatmeal squares to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 squares.
Store the squares in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
