Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9-inch square baking dish or similar-sized oven-safe dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a medium bowl, mix the applesauce, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until well combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, brown sugar, all-purpose flour, and salt.
Melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop, and then stir it into the oat mixture. Add the vanilla extract and mix until the mixture is crumbly.
Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the applesauce layer in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and crisp.
Let the crisp cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm on its own or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
