ADDITIONAL DETAILS

Whether you are looking for the perfect holiday treat to share with your loved ones or just want a warm and delicious dessert to enjoy on a chilly day, try these chewy blondies. The combination of buttery pecans and warm maple syrup is sure to delight everyone’s taste buds.

The key to the perfect maple blondie is the maple syrup you use. Pure dark maple syrup is the best for this recipe since it is harvested later in the season, meaning it offers a stronger flavor.

Be sure to toast your pecans to bring out their best flavor and aroma for your blondies. You can toast the pecans by laying them out in a single layer on a baking sheet and placing them in the oven at 350 F for 10 to 12 minutes or until fragrant.

These maple pecan blondies are tasty on their own, but you can also serve them with vanilla ice cream, butterscotch sauce, or whipped cream.

Store in a sealed container at room temperature for up to three days or in the freezer for up to two months.
