Ingredients
  

For the Blondies
  • 1 cup Butter, melted Can be substituted with coconut oil for a tropical flavor.
  • 1 cup Brown sugar Light or dark brown sugar can be used based on preference.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated sugar Sweetens the blondies without overpowering flavors.
  • 2 large Eggs Can substitute with flax eggs for a vegan alternative.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract Use pure vanilla extract for the best taste.
  • 1 1/2 cups All-purpose flour For a gluten-free version, use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Balances sweetness and enhances flavors.
  • 1 cup Shredded coconut Can use sweetened or unsweetened based on preference.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, melt the butter. Once melted, add the brown sugar and granulated sugar, stirring until well combined.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract, making sure everything is blended smoothly.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth it out evenly. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Allow the blondies to cool in the baking dish for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

Store the blondies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for up to three months. Reheat frozen blondies in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds.
