Made with simple ingredients, this recipe allows the delicious taste of maple syrup to shine through, making it perfect for both special occasions and everyday indulgence.

Ingredients You Will Need

To recreate these delightful blondies, you’ll need the following ingredients:

For the Blondies:

• 115g unsalted butter, melted
• 150g packed light brown sugar
• 100g granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 190g all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 100g chopped nuts (optional, such as walnuts or pecans)

For the Maple Butter Drizzle:

• 60g unsalted butter, softened
• 240ml icing sugar, sifted
• 60ml maple syrup
• A pinch of salt

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat Your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F) and greasing a 9×9 inch baking tray or lining it with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Blondie Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir until well combined. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just incorporated. If you’re adding nuts, fold them into the batter at this stage.

4. Bake the Blondies: Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.

5. Cool Down: Once baked, allow the blondies to cool in the tray for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

6. Prepare the Maple Butter Drizzle: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, sifted icing sugar, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt. Beat together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding a little more icing sugar or maple syrup as needed.

7. Finish and Serve: Once the blondies are completely cooled, drizzle the maple butter mixture generously over the top. Cut into squares, serve, and enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee for the perfect afternoon treat.
