Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (plant-based), browned
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract (natural)

Sugars

  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Mix-ins

  • 1 cup plant-based chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Brown the Butter: Begin by melting unsalted butter (plant-based) in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently as it foams and then turns golden brown with a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool slightly while preparing other ingredients.
  2. Mix Sugars and Eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together light brown sugar and granulated sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Combine Browned Butter and Vanilla Extract (natural): Pour the cooled browned butter into the sugar and egg mixture. Stir in vanilla extract (natural) until fully incorporated and evenly distributed.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined to avoid overworking the batter.
  5. Stir in Plant-Based Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in plant-based chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Pour batter into a lined baking pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let blondies cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Brown butter carefully by watching closely and stirring frequently to avoid burning and to achieve the perfect nutty aroma.
  • Measure flour precisely using the spoon and level method to maintain tender and moist blondies.
  • Do not overmix the batter; combine dry and wet ingredients just enough to keep a chewy texture.
  • Allow blondies to cool fully before cutting to ensure clean slices and better shape.
  • Line the baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner edges.
