Step-by-Step Instructions for Spiced Baked Pumpkin Blondies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar, whisking until silky and well-blended.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking vigorously after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract and pumpkin puree until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves until well combined.
  5. Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in the white chocolate chips and chopped pecans until they are evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
