Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the apple sauce, maple syrup, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Fold in the chopped apples and walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bars to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before lifting out the parchment paper to cool completely on a wire rack.
Once cooled, slice into bars and enjoy. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
