Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to cook until it turns golden brown and starts to smell nutty (about 5-7 minutes). Be careful not to burn it. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract. Add the cooled brown butter and stir to combine.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. Let cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
Notes
- For a twist, you can also fold in chopped pecans or walnuts for added crunch.
- These blondies are great with a drizzle of caramel sauce on top for extra indulgence
