Malted Milk Blondies aka Brewer’s Blondies

Malted Milk Blondies are originally from Baked: New Frontiers in Baking. Baked calls the blondies “Brewer’s Blondies” because they use malt from a local brewery. However, when they developed the recipe for their cookbook they switched to malted milk powder because it’s easier to find. When I make them, I use Carnation.

Malted Milk Blondies Pan Size

Malted Milk Blondies can be baked in an 8-inch square pan or in an 11×7-inch pan. The 11×7 gives more edges and slightly thinner blondies. As for flavor, they aren’t incredibly malt-y, but you’ll taste it if you know it’s there.

For the last batch I threw Hershey’s Sea Salt Caramel baking chips into the batter and used some toasted pecans. If you are ever road-tripping through Texas and want some good pecans, definitely check them out.

Compared to my usual blondies recipe these are pretty good. I wouldn’t say they are better, but they’re a good excuse to use malted milk powder and chopped malt balls.
