Step-by-Step Instructions for Strawberry Lemon Blondies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Beat in the egg and then mix in the fresh squeezed lemon juice until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, then gently fold into the wet mixture.
  5. Fold in the diced fresh strawberries and spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown on the edges and set in the center; check with a toothpick for doneness.
  7. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before lifting out and cooling completely on a wire rack.
  8. To prepare the glaze, puree the strawberries and whisk with powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth and spreadable.
  9. Spread the glaze over the cooled blondies and allow to set before slicing into squares.
