Blueberry Blondies Recipe

Introduction

Blueberry Blondies are a delightful twist on classic blondies, combining sweet white chocolate with bursts of fresh blueberries. These moist, flavorful bars are perfect for a quick dessert or an afternoon snack.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (omit if using salted butter)
• 1 cup fresh blueberries, washed and thoroughly dried

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in the white chocolate chips until fully melted and smooth. Let the mixture cool for about 10 minutes.
2. Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled butter and white chocolate mixture with the granulated sugar until combined. Add the vanilla extract, eggs, and salt, and whisk again.
3. Step 3: Gently fold in the all-purpose flour until just combined, then carefully fold in the fresh blueberries to prevent breaking them.
4. Step 4: Pour the batter evenly into a prepared 8×8-inch baking pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean or with few moist crumbs.
5. Step 5: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into 12 or 16 squares. Serve and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

• Be sure to let the butter and white chocolate mixture cool slightly before adding sugar to avoid melting the sugar and resulting in dense blondies.
• Use fresh blueberries that are dry to prevent extra moisture in the batter.
• Resist adding extra blueberries or white chocolate chips, as too many can weigh down the batter and create a dense texture.
• For a different flavor, try substituting white chocolate chips with chunks of white chocolate bar.
• If using salted butter, simply omit the added salt in the recipe.

Storage

Store blueberry blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat slightly in the microwave if desired before serving.

FAQs

Can I use frozen blueberries instead of fresh?

It’s best to use fresh blueberries that are fully dry, as frozen berries release extra moisture and can make the blondies soggy. If using frozen, thaw and pat them dry thoroughly before adding to the batter.

Can I substitute the white chocolate chips with another type of chocolate?

Yes, you can swap white chocolate chips for milk or dark chocolate chips, but keep in mind this will alter the flavor and color of the blondies slightly.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Wet Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (or salted butter, omit added salt)
• 4 ounces white chocolate chips
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs

Dry Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (omit if using salted butter)

Add-ins

• 1 cup fresh blueberries, washed and dried

Instructions

1. Melting the Butter and White Chocolate Base: In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Remove from heat and immediately add the white chocolate chips to the warm butter, stirring continuously until the white chocolate has fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Let this butter and chocolate mixture cool completely for about 10 minutes to prevent melting the sugar in the next step.
2. Mixing up the Blondie Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the cooled butter and white chocolate mixture together with the granulated sugar until well combined. Add the vanilla extract, eggs, and salt (if using) and whisk again until smooth. Carefully fold in the all-purpose flour until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the blondies tender. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, coating them evenly in the batter to prevent sinking during baking.
3. Final Steps: Baking and Serving: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line or grease an 8×8 inch baking pan. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into 12 to 16 equal squares. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

• Always cool the butter and white chocolate mixture before mixing it with sugar to prevent melting the sugar, which can cause dense and wet blondies.
• Do not add extra blueberries or white chocolate chips beyond the specified amount to avoid a dense or oily texture.
• Avoid adding toppings on top of the batter before baking as they tend to sink.
• Use the spoon and level method to measure flour to ensure accuracy and prevent dry, heavy blondies.
