Description
A cozy fall delight, these Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Blondies are soft, chewy, and filled with the flavors of autumn.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
- 1 teaspoon additional ground cinnamon (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare a 9×9 inch baking pan by greasing it with butter or lining it with parchment paper.
- Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg in a separate bowl.
- Combine the melted butter and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add the pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and creamy.
- Add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix!
- Create a pumpkin spice swirl by mixing a small amount of the batter with additional cinnamon and nutmeg, then swirl it into the main batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously on top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
- Let the blondies cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.
Notes
For clean cuts, use a sharp knife and wipe it down between each cut. Store leftovers in an airtight container.
