Morphology
unbrowned = browned (transparent) = un + brown + ed
The word is formed by negating 'browned' with the productive prefix 'un-', yielding 'not browned' in a straightforward way.
Etymology
Unbrowned is formed from un- meaning 'not' and the base brown meaning 'to make brown' or the color 'brown'. So, unbrowned means 'not made brown', left pale or in its original lighter color, like toast that is only warmed and not toasted.
