How to Make Brown Butter Peach Blondies

Equipment Needed

Instructions:

Making the Brown Butter:

In a heavy-bottom saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter turns a golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove from heat, pour into a heat-proof container, and let cool slightly.
Separate 1/4 cup of the brown butter for the glaze.

Preparing the Spiced Peaches:

In the same saucepan, combine the diced frozen peaches (no need to thaw), brown sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the peaches are soft and the mixture is syrupy, about 5-7 minutes.
Set aside to cool slightly.

Preparing the Blondie Batter:

Preheat your oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the blondies out easily.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled brown butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until well combined. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
Sift in the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the cooled spiced peaches, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Baking:

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the blondies to cool in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the parchment paper overhang.

Mix the Glaze:

While the blondies are cooling, make the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sifted powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the browned butter to the sugar mixture, whisking continuously to combine. If the brown butter has solidified, simply microwave for a few seconds before adding to the sugar mixture.
Add milk or cream, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach a smooth, pourable consistency. If the glaze becomes too thin, you can add a little more powdered sugar to thicken it.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooled blondies. Allow it to set for a few minutes before serving.

Cut into squares and enjoy!

Ingredient Substitutions/Variations

Fruit Variations: Not a fan of peaches or simply want to try something different? Swap out peaches for apples, pears, or even blueberries for a delightful twist.
Flour Alternatives: For those who need a gluten-free option, replace all-purpose flour with your favorite gluten-free blend.
Sugar Adjustments: If you prefer less sweetness, reduce the granulated sugar slightly, but keep the brown sugar to maintain moisture and flavor.

How to Store & Shelf Life

Store these blondies in an airtight container at room temperature to keep them moist and chewy. They are best enjoyed within 3-4 days.
For longer storage, you can refrigerate them for up to a week or freeze them for up to 3 months. Simply thaw at room temperature before serving or give them a quick warm-up in the microwave.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use fresh peaches instead of frozen?

A: Yes! Fresh peaches work just as well. Just ensure they are not overly ripe to avoid excess moisture.

Q: What if my blondies aren’t baking evenly?

A: Oven hot spots can cause uneven baking. Rotate your pan halfway through baking to achieve an even golden-brown top. I recommend using an oven thermometer too.

Tips & Tricks

Brown Your Butter Well: The key to unlocking these blondies' full flavor potential is in the browning of your butter. Aim for a golden-brown color and a distinctly nutty aroma.
Do Not Overmix: When combining your batter, mix just until the ingredients are incorporated. Overmixing can lead to tough blondies.
Cool Before Glazing: Allow your blondies to cool completely in the pan before adding the glaze. This ensures the glaze sets perfectly on top without melting into the blondie.
