Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla: Incorporate the eggs and vanilla extract into the wet mixture, mixing until fully combined.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt to distribute the leavening agents and spices evenly.
  5. Combine wet and dry mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the blondies tender.
  6. Fold in pecans: Gently fold the chopped pecans into the batter, distributing them evenly.
  7. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool and serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy your delicious pumpkin pecan blondies!

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • For a richer flavor, consider adding chocolate chips to the batter.
  • These blondies can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature before serving.
