Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter Can substitute with coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
- 2 cups Brown sugar Light or dark brown sugar can be used depending on preference.
- 2 Large eggs Room temperature eggs work best.
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract Use pure vanilla extract for the best flavor.
- 2 cups All-purpose flour Can substitute with whole wheat flour for added fiber.
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder Ensure it's fresh for maximum rise.
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt Enhances the flavors; do not omit.
- 1 cup Fresh blueberries Frozen blueberries can also be used but may alter texture slightly.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
- Remove from heat and stir in the brown sugar until smooth.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
- Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until just combined.
- Fold in the blueberries gently.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool before slicing into squares and serving.
Notes
Ensure your butter is fully melted but not bubbling to avoid burnt flavor. Using a ruler can help in cutting even squares for a more polished presentation. Cool completely in the pan for better texture before cutting. Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before baking for a delightful contrast to the sweetness. Pairing these blondies with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream enhances the overall experience.
