Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 170 grams Unsalted butter
- 200 grams Light brown sugar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 40 grams Unsalted butter (for cinnamon swirl)
- 65 grams Brown sugar (for cinnamon swirl)
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (for cinnamon swirl)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease or line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
Melt 170 grams of unsalted butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave, and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk until smooth and fully combined.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract to the mixture. Whisk until the batter is thick and silky.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
For the cinnamon swirl, melt 40 grams of unsalted butter. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with 65 grams of brown sugar and 1.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon to form a thick paste.
Pour the blondie batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
Spoon the cinnamon swirl mixture in dollops over the surface of the batter. Use a knife or skewer to create a swirling pattern by dragging it through the batter and cinnamon mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into 12 squares and serving. Enjoy!
