Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, mix the light brown sugar, granulated sugar, unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the blondies to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.
Once cooled completely, cut into 12 squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
