Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

Add-ins

  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the blondies.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, melted butter, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
  3. Whisk Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. This helps evenly distribute the leavening agents and spices throughout the batter.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the batter, which keeps your blondies tender.
  5. Add White Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the white chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the blondies are fully cooked.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. This helps them set and makes for clean slices.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh pumpkin puree, or canned pumpkin puree labeled 100% pumpkin.
  • You can substitute white chocolate chips with semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips if preferred.
  • Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Ensure not to overbake to keep the blondies moist and chewy.
