Recipe: Cinnamon Blondies

Ingredients

1 ½ cups cake flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups packed light brown sugar
1 ½ sticks unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 ½ cups cinnamon chips or stir-in of your choice (nuts, dried fruit, chocolate chips)

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F and adjust the oven rack to the lowest position.
2. Spray an 8-inch square metal baking pan with vegetable oil cooking spray.
3. Line the pan with a 16-inch piece of heavy-duty foil, leaving overhangs for easy removal, and spray the foil with vegetable oil spray.
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
5. In another medium bowl, whisk the brown sugar into the melted butter.
6. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and vanilla together, then add to the butter mixture.
7. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed, then fold in the cinnamon chips or your chosen stir-ins.
8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 40 minutes until just set.
9. Let the blondies cool for 5 minutes, then use the foil overhangs to lift them out of the pan and cool on a wire rack.
10. Once cooled, cut into squares and serve.
