Strawberry Blondies {one bowl}

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup fresh strawberries, chopped small (80g)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted (113g)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200g)
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour (157g)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the fresh strawberries by washing them. Then slice off the tops and chop into small bite size pieces. Lay down two layers of paper towels and spread the chopped strawberries in a single layer over the towels. Take another paper towel and place it over the top of the berries and lightly press to help remove any excess moisture. Set aside.
  3. For the blondies: In a medium to large bowl, whisk together the melted butter (½ cup/113g), granulated sugar (1 cup/200g) and kosher salt (¼ teaspoon) until well combined.
  4. Then add the egg (1 large) and vanilla (1 teaspoon). Scrape up and down the bowl as needed and whisk until combined, about 1 minute.
  5. Next add the all-purpose flour (1 ¼ cup/157g) and mix until some large flour streaks remain. Then add the strawberries (½ cup/80g) and gently fold to combine.
  6. Drop the batter (it’s thick) into the prepared baking pan and smooth to an even layer.
  7. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes or until the edges have lightly browned and a tester in the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs. Allow to cool in the pan on a wire cooling rack.
  8. Then use the parchment to pull the bars out of the pan and cut into desired sizes.
