Why You’ll Love This Easy Blondie Recipe

• Versatility: While peaches are the star here, you can easily swap in other fruits like berries or apples for a different twist.

• Crowd-pleaser: These blondies are always a hit, whether you serve them at a potluck or bake sale or simply enjoy them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

The Secret to Perfect Blondies

The key to achieving that perfect blondie texture lies in a few simple tips:

• Don’t Overmix: Overmixing can lead to tough, dense blondies. Mix until just combined.
• Brown the Butter: Browning the butter adds a rich, nutty depth of flavor that takes these blondies to the next level.
• Use Ripe Peaches: Choose peaches that are slightly soft to the touch and smell fragrant. This will ensure a sweet, juicy compote.

Tips for Making the Perfect Peach Compote (or Any Fruit Compote)

While the blondies themselves are a delight, the peach compote truly elevates this dessert. Here are some tips to ensure your compote turns out perfectly:

• Choose Ripe Fruit:  Whether you’re using peaches, berries, or apples, select fruit that is ripe and flavorful. This will give your compote the best taste.
• Balance Sweetness and Tartness: If your fruit is overly sweet, a squeeze of lemon juice can add a nice balance. Conversely, a touch of honey or sugar can enhance sweetness if needed.
• Adjust Thickness:  For a thicker compote, cook it down longer or add a cornstarch slurry. For a thinner consistency, simply cook for less time or add a splash of water.
• Experiment with Flavors:  Enhance your compote with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger. You can also add a splash of vanilla extract or a liqueur like Grand Marnier for a sophisticated touch.
• Make Ahead: Compote can be made a day or two in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to meld and develop even further.

With these tips, you’ll be able to create a delicious and versatile compote that complements not only these peach blondies but also yogurt, pancakes, ice cream, and more!
