A fusion of snickerdoodles and blondies with a pumpkin twist, perfect for fall gatherings or cozy dessert nights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (for topping)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until combined. Add the pumpkin puree, egg, and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix—the batter should be thick and cohesive.
  5. In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon for the topping.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously over the top.
  7. Bake for 28-32 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs (not wet batter).
  8. Let the blondies cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes before lifting them out using the parchment paper. Slice into squares and enjoy!

Notes

[‘Use pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.’, ‘Don’t overmix the batter to avoid tough blondies.’, ‘Let the blondies cool completely for cleaner slicing.’, ‘Add mix-ins like pecans, white chocolate chips, or dried cranberries for extra flavor.’]
