Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ½ – 2 teaspoons cinnamon (to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup mashed banana (one medium-large banana)
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter (for frosting)
  • 6 tablespoons light brown sugar (for frosting)
  • 2 tablespoons milk (for frosting)
  • Dash of salt (for frosting)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for frosting)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with aluminum foil, greasing it lightly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter, light brown sugar, and salt until smooth. Mix in the egg, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until incorporated.
  3. Fold in the mashed banana. Gradually add flour and stir until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing it out evenly. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Meanwhile, prepare the frosting by melting butter in a saucepan over medium heat until amber-colored. Stir in brown sugar, milk, and salt; bring to a boil then remove from heat.
  6. Let cool slightly before whisking in vanilla extract and powdered sugar until smooth.
  7. Spread frosting over cooled blondies, allow to set before slicing.
