Brown Butter Pumpkin Blondies

1. 1

   To brown the butter, melt it in a skillet over medium heat, stirring as you go. When butter melts, it will foam. Wait for foam to diminish, then look for brown bits of butter on the bottom of the skillet. As soon as you see brown bits, turn heat off. Stir for 1 minute more, then transfer brown butter to a large bowl for the blondies. Let butter cool for about 5 minutes, then proceed with the recipe.

2. 2

   Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Prepare a square baking dish (8x8 or 9x9) with parchment paper or cooking spray.

3. 3

   Whisk flour and salt in a small bowl.

4. 4

   To the large bowl with the slightly cooled brown butter, add pumpkin puree, vanilla, brown sugar, and pie spice. Stir well to combine.

5. 5

   Fold in flour mixture until barely combined. Stir in chocolate chips.

6. 6

   Transfer mixture to the baking dish and spread to fill the pan. Bake brown butter pumpkin blondies for 40-50 minutes until edges are lightly brown and center is just set. The top of the blondies will still look slightly underdone.

7. 7

   Remove from oven and cool completely in pan before removing and slicing/serving. Yum.
