We all need a quick go-to treat recipe to drop off at a neighbors, share with friends, or just for a fun family night in. This recipe is just that. The other day I made them as Trevor was in and out of the kitchen while grilling, and when I pulled them out of the oven he asked, “Wait, when did you even make those?” since I had prepped them, put them in the oven, and cleaned up all within the few minutes he was outside. They can be mixed together in a single bowl and are just so darn good. You can also sub whatever berries you have on hand, and I’ve made them with multiple kinds. In fact, our house is divided on whether we like them with blackberries or raspberries better. You might just have to try them both out to decide for yourself!
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2½ cups all purpose flour
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1½ cups brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1½ pints blackberries
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8x10 or 9x9 inch pan with parchment paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat over medium heat. Continue to cook butter over medium heat until butter browns and smells nutty. This should take a few minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to cool slightly, making sure to get the browned bits at the bottom.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, add brown sugar. Stir in slightly cooled down brown butter, stirring to combine. Add the eggs and vanilla, stirring to mix well. Add dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, using a spoon or your hands to press down to form a single layer. Add blackberries on top, pressing down slightly.
- Bake in preheated over for about 27-32 minutes, or until edges are golden and blondies appear set and baked on the top. Remove from oven and let cool before cutting and serving.
