½cupbutter, meltedmelted
1cuplight brown sugar
1egg
2teaspoonsvanilla
1cupall-purpose flour*
¼teaspoonkosher salt
1cupshredded coconut
¾cupchopped pecans
½cupsemi-sweet chocolate chips OPTIONAL
*Gluten-Free Alternative
⅔cupbrown rice flour
4tablespoonstapioca flour
3tablespoonspotato starch
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch pan with parchment paper or line with foil and grease the foil very well. In a large bowl, stir together the butter and sugar until smooth.
Add the egg and vanilla and stir to combine. Stir in the flour and salt, just until combined. Stir in the coconut and pecans. Add chocolate chips, if desired.
Scoop the batter into the prepared pan and spread to the sides. Bake 25-28 minutes, until an inserted toothpick has moist crumbs. The blondies should be slightly browned along the edges.
Cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes and then lift the brownies out by the foil/paper and set on wire rack to finish cooling before slicing and storing in an airtight container. Enjoy!
Notes
COOK’S NOTE: This recipe can be doubled to fill a 9x13 pan. The doubled recipe will need to be baked for 40-45 minutes, until an inserted toothpick has moist crumbs. Slice into 16-24 servings.You can make this recipe in a greased pan without any liner at all. I prefer the ease of lifting the bars from the pan by the sides of the parchment or foil and slicing them outside of the pan.
