Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup caramel sauce

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine melted butter and brown sugar, mixing until smooth. Then, add pumpkin puree, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is well-combined.
  • Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  • Merge Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined—resist the urge to overmix!
  • Layer the Batter: Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it out evenly. Drizzle half of the caramel sauce over this first layer.
  • Add Remaining Batter and Caramel: Pour the remaining batter on top of the caramel layer. Drizzle the rest of the caramel sauce over the surface, using a knife to gently swirl it into the batter.
  • Bake: Place the pan in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool and Cut: Allow your blondies to cool completely before cutting them into squares. Serve them warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!
