CINNAMON BLONDIES

Jump to Recipe

A delicious chewy dessert with a satisfying cinnamon flavour perfect for indulging with a cup of tea. If you are a cinnamon dessert lover, then you have to try these cinnamon blondies. Cinnamon blondies are quite easy to make; you only need thirty minutes. A perfectly delicious treat to quickly whip up and satisfy a sweet tooth.

I particularly like indulging in cinnamon blondies with a splash of homemade caramel sauce because why not? It is true, cinnamon and caramel pair so well! Like these Cinnamon caramel cupcakes.

A blondie is not crunchy as a cookie, not soft and fluffy as a cake, and lacks chocolate therefore, it’s not a brownie. Blondies are entirely chewy, gooey and dense with notes of caramel due to brown sugar.

Note that overbaking blondies will make them crunchy and dry around the edges, which is sometimes not a bad thing, but if you are going for an entirely chewy blondie don’t overbake.

To fix overbaked blondies, don’t consume immediately; instead, cover and refrigerate overnight. The next day the blondies will be soft, chewy and even tastier!

Ingredients.

Brown sugar. Blondies are entirely chewy and dense hence the need for brown sugar. It also adds in the brown colour of cinnamon blondies while also enhancing a deep caramel flavour.

All-purpose flour.

Cinnamon powder. You can also use Cinnamon syrup.

Melted butter. Good substitutes would be shortening, coconut oil, olive oil or any nut oil.

Eggs. Eggs add moisture to cinnamon blondies, as well as help add more liquid into the batter hence, acting as a binding agent. However, too many eggs will make blondies have a cakey texture.

Honey.

Salt.

Baking powder.

Homemade salted caramel. (Optional) for garnishing.

Vanilla extract.
