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 and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking pan to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, melted butter, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir these together until well blended and smooth.
  3. Whisk Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mixing the dry ingredients ensures even distribution of the spices and leavening agent.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined to form the blondie batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the texture tender.
  5. Add White Chocolate Chips: Fold in the white chocolate chips gently to spread them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares to prevent crumbling and to let flavors set.

Notes

  • Ensure the pumpkin puree is not pumpkin pie filling; use plain pumpkin puree for best results.
  • You can substitute white chocolate chips with regular chocolate chips or butterscotch chips if preferred.
  • Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate to extend freshness.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend.
