Ingredients
  

For the Blondies
  • 1 Egg Can be replaced with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 2.5 tablespoons water)
  • ½ cup Unsalted Butter, melted Can substitute with coconut oil for a dairy-free option
  • ¼ cup Honey Can replace with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan option
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract No substitutions recommended, but can use vanilla powder in a pinch
  • 1 cup All-Purpose Flour Can swap with a gluten-free baking blend for a gluten-free option
  • 1 cup Light Brown Sugar, packed White sugar can substitute, but will slightly change flavor
  • ½ teaspoon Salt Balances and enhances sweetness
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon, divided Increase for a more pronounced cinnamon taste
For the Topping
  • 3 tablespoons Granulated Sugar Adds a sweet, crunchy texture to the topping

Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking pan
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • spatula

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8-inch baking pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together melted butter and brown sugar until smooth, about 1-2 minutes. Add egg, honey, and vanilla, whisking until blended.
  3. Gently stir in flour, salt, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Combine the granulated sugar and remaining ½ teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over the top.
  5. Bake for 22-25 minutes, checking with a toothpick; it should come out clean with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Allow to cool in the pan on a wire rack completely before cutting into squares.
