Maple Pecan Blondies

Here’s a blondie recipe that I have made many times!  Mine are never as gooey as Gemma’s and that’s probably because I over-bake them. I should keep a better eye on them next time. I like to brown the butter first but it’s not necessary. Enjoy!  Maple Pecan Blondies Makes 9-12 servings Original recipe from Bigger Bolder Baking Ingredients ¾ cup butter, melted or browned 1¼ cups dark brown sugar ½ cup maple syrup 1 large egg  2 teaspoons vanilla 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups all-purpose flour ¼ teaspoon baking soda I ¼ cups pecans, toasted and chopped  Directions   Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9x13” baking pan with parchment. Gemma used 8x8 but I like my bars thinner. Whisk together the butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, egg, vanilla, and salt. Stir in the flour and baking soda just until combined.  Stir in the pecans. Pour mixture into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes.

Carrot and Parsnip Chips

These were tasty!

They take some time in the oven but they're a nice little snack.

To slice the vegetables, I used a mandolin on the thinnest setting mine has. If you don't have a mandolin, you should get one. They make slicing so much easier! You can make all kinds of chips and save time on slicing. Just watch your fingers.



Carrot and Parsnip Chips
Makes about 1 cup of chips
Ingredients
  • 1 large carrot, thinly sliced
  • 2 medium parsnips, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 200F.
  2. Mix oil and spices then toss sliced carrots and parsnips in it.
  3. Spread on 2 cookie sheets in a single layer. Bake for 1 hour in the middle of the oven, then flip the slices. Bake for another hour or until crisp.
  4. To test, take out a piece of each vegetable and set aside for 3 minutes to cool. If it's crispy, then remove the sheets from the oven and allow to cool before eating. Otherwise, continue to cook for a few more minutes. Watch them carefully so they don't burn.
