Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus more for topping
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, divided
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for cinnamon swirl)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until well combined.
  3. Whisk in the eggs one at a time until smooth. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 tablespoon of the ground cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of cinnamon with the 1/4 cup of granulated sugar for the swirl topping.
  7. Spread about two-thirds of the blondie batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  8. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter. Dollop the remaining one-third of the batter randomly over the top. Sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top layer.
  9. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the topping into the batter a few times to create a marbled effect.
  10. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with moist crumbs attached.
  11. Let the blondies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.
  12. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

  • For extra gooey blondies, reduce the baking time by 2-3 minutes.
  • You can use brown butter instead of melted butter for a deeper flavor profile.
  • For a richer cinnamon flavor, use Saigon cinnamon if available.
