Equipment

  • 1 8x8-inch square pan
  • 1 Microwave-safe bowl
  • 1 Large bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Parchment paper (enough to line the pan with overhang)
  • Wire rack (for cooling)
  • Airtight container (for storing leftovers)

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup 112g unsalted butter
  • 1 ½ cups 312g packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup 130g unsweetened peanut butter (natural or no-stir)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups 200g all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup 50g rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup 170g semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup 115g chopped pecans
  • 1 cup 75g small grated unsweetened coconut

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper, letting it hang over two opposite sides for easy removal later.
  • Place the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in short intervals until melted. Let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cooled butter, brown sugar, eggs, peanut butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  • Add the flour, rolled oats, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold these into the wet ingredients until just combined. Don't overmix.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips, chopped pecans, and grated coconut.
  • Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  • Let the blondies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Use the parchment paper to lift them out, then cut into 16 squares.
  • Store any leftover blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.

Notes

Tips:

  • For easier spreading, lightly wet your hands or use a spatula sprayed with cooking oil.
  • If the top browns too quickly, loosely tent it with foil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking.
