Chewy and sweet maple pecan blondies with a rich maple syrup flavor and crunchy pecans, perfect for autumn baking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon maple extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and brown sugar until well combined.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla and maple extracts.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together baking powder, salt, and flour.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chopped pecans.
  7. Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Drizzle with maple syrup.
  8. Dollop the remaining batter over the maple syrup.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  10. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars.

Notes

  • For an extra maple flavor, you can add a drizzle of pure maple syrup over the top before baking.
  • Ensure your butter is fully melted for the best texture.
  • Do not overbake, as this will result in dry blondies.
