Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup croissant crumbs (about 2-3 croissants, torn into pieces)
- ½ cup sliced almonds
- ¼ cup almond flour (optional, for extra almond flavor)
- ½ cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tbsp almond milk (or regular milk)
- ½ tsp almond extract (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well mixed.
- Blend the melted butter and brown sugar until smooth in a large bowl.
- Add eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold until just combined.
- Fold in croissant crumbs, sliced almonds, and almond flour (if using).
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Mix powdered sugar, almond milk, and almond extract to make the glaze. Drizzle it over the cooled blondies for an extra almond touch.
Notes
You can substitute almond milk with regular milk if needed. Opt for high-quality butter for richer flavor. For a stronger almond taste, use the optional almond flour. Consider adding chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
