Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted applesauce
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with cooking spray.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the unsalted applesauce, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, large egg, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Step 5
Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts into the batter using a rubber spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with the spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached.
Step 8
Allow the blondies to cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut them into 12 squares and serve.
Step 9
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
