Yield12
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cups light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- Optional: powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pan and Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan lightly with butter or oil and line it with a sheet of parchment paper leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal. This small prep step sets the stage for even baking and makes it easy to lift the finished blondies out of their rectangular mold once cooled.
Notes
- Melt butter gently and allow to cool slightly before mixing with eggs so you do not cook them.
- Pat strawberries dry and toss with a teaspoon of flour to prevent excess moisture in the center.
- Use parchment paper with an overhang for easy removal and cleaner slicing.
- If substituting ingredients, expect slight texture changes; adjust bake time and keep an eye on edges.
- Warm slightly before serving for a softer, more just-baked feel.
