Ingredients
Scale
Blondie Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup plant-based butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (natural)
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1/4 cup smoked turkey bacon, chopped
Sea Salt Toffee Sauce
- 1/2 cup plant-based cream
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (natural)
- 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
- 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
- Sea salt, for sprinkling
Instructions
- Prepare the Blondie Batter: Cream plant-based butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. Add natural vanilla extract (natural), then gradually mix in sifted all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. If using smoked turkey bacon, fold it gently into the batter to distribute evenly.
- Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into a greased baking pan lined with parchment paper. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes or until edges are golden and the center is set but still soft for a chewy texture.
- Prepare the Sea Salt Toffee Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine plant-based cream, brown sugar, maple syrup (natural), and vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural). Stir continuously and add the natural gelling agent until the sauce thickens and becomes silky. Finish with a sprinkle of sea salt to balance the sweetness.
- Assemble and Serve: Once the blondies have cooled slightly, poke holes all over the top. Pour the warm sea salt toffee sauce generously over them and let it soak in for a few minutes. Slice and serve to enjoy the indulgent stickiness.
Notes
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure even mixing and a smooth batter.
- Do not overbake; remove blondies when the center is still slightly soft to keep them gooey.
- Simmer the toffee sauce until slightly thickened for maximum lusciousness.
- Use quality dark brown sugar to enhance the caramel depth in both blondies and sauce.
- Store leftovers covered at room temperature to maintain moisture and flavor.
