How to Make Irresistible Brown Butter Pecan Blondies

  • Brown the Butter: Melt unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until golden brown and nutty, about 4-5 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine browned butter with brown and granulated sugars. Mix well, add eggs one by one, stirring in vanilla extract after each addition.
  • Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Combine Mixtures: Gradually mix dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  • Fold in Add-ins: Fold in chopped pecans and optional chocolate chips.
  • Prepare for Baking: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan or line with parchment paper.
  • Pour Batter: Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  • Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out with moist crumbs.
  • Cool and Serve: Let blondies cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice into squares.

Notes

For best results, ensure ingredients are at room temperature and avoid overmixing to keep the texture chewy. Optional serve with vanilla ice cream or caramel.
