Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, melted and browned
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 2 large Eggs

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Ginger

Instructions

  1. Prepare the oven and pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Brown the butter: Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until it turns a deep golden color and emits a nutty aroma, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  3. Mix sugars and butter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the browned butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture is well blended.
  4. Add pumpkin and eggs: Mix in the pumpkin puree until smooth. Then add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition to incorporate fully.
  5. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  6. Mix wet and dry ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Bake: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until edges are set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool and serve: Allow the blondies to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve.

Notes

  • For variation, add 1/2 cup chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
  • Swirl cream cheese frosting on top for an extra indulgent treat.
  • Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • Serve with warm beverages such as coffee, tea, or hot cider for a cozy fall experience.
