Cinnamon Blondies

Sometimes I tell my niece things like, “I’m growing my hair so long because I want to be a mermaid when I grow up” or “I want to be as pretty as YOU when I grow up”.

She tells me that I’m already grown up.

I ate one of these before dinner. I couldn’t resist. I guess being a grown up is ok sometimes.

These are spicy with nutmeg and cinnamon and dreamy like a cookie.

They are also the first blondie that I successfully made! So make these! Take a nutmegabite.

Recipe from Sugarlaws

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/3 all-purpose flour
  • 1 t baking powder
  • 1/2 t cinnamon
  • 1/8 t nutmeg
  • 1/4 t cream of tartar
  • 1/2 t kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 t vanilla extract

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cream of tartar and salt. In another medium bowl using an electric mixer cream together the butter and sugars. When combined add the egg and vanilla and mix until blended together nicely.
  3. Add the flour mixture and stir until mixed completely. Spread batter in the bottom of the prepared pan, evening it with a spatula. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean when inserted in the center. Let the pan cool completely before lifting the bars out of the pan with the parchment paper. Slice into 16 squares.
  4. Eat one before dinner.

Nutmeg

I bought some whole nutmeg for moments like these. Look at the squiggly inside!
I’m into it.

  1. Thanks Cassidy! I’m glad you liked it!

    Mornings are the worst. I guess it’s good blondies like these exist. 🙂

  2. A cinnamon and nutmeg blondie would definitely be worth sneaking before supper. 🙂

    Sounds like the right thing to make with that lonely egg sitting in my fridge.

  3. I just made these and they are SO GOOD. I sprinkled a little cinnamon sugar on top before I put them on the oven. They taste like snickerdoodle bars. Thanks for the recipe!
