Ingredients
  

Blondie Base
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted Make sure the butter isn’t too hot.
  • ¼ cup honey Can be substituted with maple syrup or agave syrup.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour Avoid overmixing to keep the blondies soft.
  • 1 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided Use half for the batter, half for topping.
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (for topping)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the egg, honey, and vanilla extract, whisking until evenly incorporated.
  4. Gently stir in the flour, salt, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon until just combined.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
  6. Mix granulated sugar with the remaining ½ teaspoon of cinnamon and sprinkle over the batter.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 22–25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  2. Let the blondies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.

Notes

These blondies are great served warm with a drizzle of honey, ice cream, or whipped cream. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days at room temperature or refrigerate for up to a week.
