Pecan Blondies: The Ultimate Chewy Recipe.

These Pecan Blondies are the ultimate chewy treat, featuring a rich buttery base, sweet brown sugar, and crunchy toasted pecans for a perfect caramel-like flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chopped pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to release air bubbles.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  9. Let the blondies cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares.

Notes

  • For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pecans in a dry pan for 3-5 minutes before adding to the batter.
  • Be careful not to overbake to ensure the centers remain soft and chewy.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
