For the Blondies
- 2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- ¼ cup bourbon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup peach preserves
- 1 cup fresh peaches, diced (about 1 medium peach)
For the Glaze
- 1½ cups powdered sugar
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 tbsp bourbon
For the Blondies
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, letting the excess hang off of the sides of the pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Gradually add the melted butter and stir until just combined.
Stir in ¼ cup of bourbon and vanilla. Add the eggs one a time, whisking well after each addition. Stir in the flour until just combined.
Fold in the peach preserves and then fold in ¾ cup of the diced peaches. Spread batter into the prepared pan and top with remaining ¼ cup of peaches.
Bake until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs, about 35 to 40 minutes. After 30 minutes of baking, you can cover lightly with a piece of aluminum foil to prevent over browning.
Let cool completely on wire rack.
- Blondies can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen. Just make the glaze when you pull them out of the freezer!
