Pistachio Blondies

Serving Size:
9 slices
Time:
40 min
Difficulty:
2/5

Ingredients

  • 170 g browned butter
  • 3 dl (1 ½ cups) light brown sugar
  • 1 egg + 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 3 dl (1 ¼ cups) all-purpose flour
  • 100 g white chocolate, chopped
  • 1 dl (60 g / ½ cup) pistachios, roughly chopped (I bought pre-chopped once)
  • Pistachio butter and more pistachios to top the baked blondie

Directions

  1. Preheat & Prepare:
    Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) pan with parchment paper.
  2. Brown the Butter:
    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring constantly. Let it cook until golden brown and until you see it bubbling up. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
    In a large bowl, whisk together the browned butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, whisking until fully combined.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
    In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Add Chocolate & Pistachios:
    Fold in the chopped white chocolate and pistachios (if using).
  6. Bake:
    Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges are golden and the center is slightly set but still soft.
  7. Cool & Serve:
    Let the blondies cool completely before slicing to get the perfect chewy texture.
