Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup (200g) packed brown sugar
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for topping)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon for the topping. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla extract, whisking until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula. Mix just until combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top in an even layer.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the blondies cool completely in the pan before using the parchment paper to lift them out. Slice into squares and serve.
Notes
[‘Don’t overmix the batter to keep the blondies soft and chewy.’, ‘Start checking for doneness at the 25-minute mark to avoid overbaking.’, ‘Let the blondies cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling.’, ‘Double the recipe for larger gatherings using a 9×13-inch pan.’]
