Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- Optional: chopped pecans, white chocolate chips, or flaky sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, and maple syrup until smooth. Add the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until fully combined.
- Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice to the bowl. Stir gently until no streaks of flour remain, avoiding overmixing.
- If using add-ins like nuts or chocolate chips, fold them in now.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Let the blondies cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into squares and serve.
Notes
For gooier blondies, bake for the lower end of the recommended time. Experiment with add-ins like white chocolate chips or chopped pecans for a twist. Let the blondies cool completely to prevent crumbling.
