Blueberry White Chocolate Blondies
We’re crazy over this decadent and perky Blueberry White Chocolate Blondies recipe!
For my personal sanity, I need sunshine… Continual sunshine.
I need to see green when I walk outside. I need shorts. Sometimes I think our family needs to move to a tropical climate so I can experience summer all year long. After all, when mama’s happy, every body is happy, right?
One way to combat the feeling of endless waiting for sandals and sunshine, is to eat warm-weather foods like berries!
Berries are in abundance right now, and well priced. However when we need sunshine and summer berries in the fall and winter, frozen berries are a good substitute.
Frozen fruits and veggies are picked in the peak of their season and frozen quickly to retain flavor and nutrients. Frozen fruit is usually a fraction of the cost and bakes just as well as fresh fruit.
I use frozen berries and citrus zest anytime I need to bake summer treats out of season.
The bright poppy flavors in today’s Blueberry White Chocolate Blondies helps me make it through the cold months. Reminding me that soon enough, I will be trouncing through the berry patch swinging my little basket and humming a merry tune!
I mean the kids will be doing that and I will be maturely watching from the sidelines… Not skipping.
No matter the season, Blueberry White Chocolate Blondies are a great way to lift your mood!
Blueberry White Chocolate Blondies
Ingredients
- 2 cups brown sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour + 1 tablespoon for blueberries
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 cups blueberries (can be frozen)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt both sugars and the butter together until the brown sugar is mostly melted. (You can do this in the microwave for 2-3 minutes or on stovetop.)
- Mix the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and lemon zest together. Add the melted sugar mixture and stir. Then add the eggs and vanilla. Stir well.
- Press the mixture into a greased 9 X 13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle the white chocolate chips over the top. Then toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour and sprinkle them over the top.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. If the edges of the blondies start to get dark, loosely tent a piece of foil over the top of the pan. Cool to room temperature before cutting.
I’m with you. I’m looking for green grass, the fresh scent of spring, and a lot of sunshine! Your blondies sound delicious and your pictures rock as usual. Have a blondie for me will ya!

Mmmmm…loved the combo of white chocolate chips and blueberries. The blondies are looking gorgeous and wud luv to bake my batch and relish.
Frozen berries are lifesavers. We are definitely getting some “Spring” weather here in Austin. Almost 80 degrees today! Thank you for sharing these with us! They look delicious. I hope you are having a great end to your week.
I want to eat every single one of those blondies. I loooovvee blondies but blondies with blueberries and white chocolate sounds amazing. :) They look beautiful too!
I just made Blondies too after reading about them on Blog is the New Black. They were a big hit so I will have to try out your recipe too.
These look awesome Sommer! I buy these great frozen, wild blueberries at Earth Fare, and I think that they would be perfect in this! Thanks for all the great recipes!!
Can I steal one? they’re absolutely gorgeous!!
P.S: I need sunshine too!!
These look delicious! Great flavor pairing.
These look great. I always have a stash of frozen berries in my freezer for baking, smoothies, yogurt mix-ins, etc. My husband doesn’t like blueberries, but I bet these would be equally good with raspberries. Beautiful photos too.
Wow not only are those gorgeous, I bet they just taste like a square of heaven! AH nomnomnoms!
I keep forgetting that blondies exist out there and need to give them a try: especially with the blueberries in them. Delicious addition! Looking good.
I’ve never made blondies before (how strange) but this may be the recipe to start with because I love every ingredient that you’ve put in there… and they look fantabulous!
We are still dealing with freezing weather … 24 fahrenheit today :(
Those look ridiculously incredible! Wow!! Bookmarked!!

I couldn’t agree with you more, bring on the sunshine! This sounds delicious! I just stocked up on frozen fruits to get us through until we can get some fresh ones and blondies sounds like the perfect way to use them up.
