Ingredients

For the Blondies:

  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter for browning
  • 1 cup Light brown sugar packed
  • 1 Large egg at room temperature
  • 1 cup Flour do not pack
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder for rising

Instructions

Instructions

  • Start by browning the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until golden brown and nutty.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and browned butter. Whisk until combined, then add the egg and mix until smooth.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and toasted walnuts until evenly distributed.
  • Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Spread the batter evenly in the pan and sprinkle flaky sea salt on top.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes or until edges are golden and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  • Let the blondies cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then lift out using the parchment paper and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
