Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat together the brown sugar, melted coconut oil, applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the optional chopped nuts and vegan chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the blondies from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes.
Once cooled, slice into 12 squares and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
