📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and cook until golden brown, 3 to ⏱️ 5 minutes. Immediately transfer the butter to a large heatproof bowl and swirl a few times to stop the browning. Let cool to room temperature, about ⏱️ 30 minutes.
2
Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides. Coat the parchment paper with cooking spray.

3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, apple pie spice, salt, and baking soda.
4
Stir the brown sugar into the brown butter. Add the applesauce, vanilla, and eggs, and stir until smooth. Stir in the flour mixture, being careful not to overmix. Fold in ½ cup of the white chocolate chips and ½ cup of the walnuts, if using. Scoop the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Scatter the remaining ¼ cup white chocolate chips and ¼ cup walnuts over the top, if using.
5
Bake until the blondies are set and lightly golden brown on top, 32 to ⏱️ 35 minutes. Let the blondies cool in the pan on a wire rack to room temperature, about ⏱️ 1 hour. Use the parchment paper to lift out the blondies to a cutting board and cut into 20 bars.
