Description

Light, buttery, decadent, healthy chocolate chip blondies made from almond butter, almond flour, coconut oil, eggs, coconut sugar, and,  chocolate chips. Gluten-free, Paleo and so easy to make! Your new go-to dessert!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup creamy almond butter (I used Trader Joe’s)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips (plus more for topping) – I used Lily’s dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8×8 baking dish with parchment paper and spray it lightly with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl combine the almond butter, eggs, coconut sugar, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
  3. Stir in the almond flour, baking soda, and salt, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Pour the batter into the baking dish and smooth it out evenly to the edges of the pan. Top with more chocolate chips.
  5. Bake for 50-55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted, comes out slightly clean with a few wet crumbs on it. 
  6. Let the blondies cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes. Once they have cooled, remove them from the pan, slice them, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Storing – these blondies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. 
  • Almond butter – make sure to use drippy, creamy almond butter.  You can also use peanut butter, cashew butter or sun butter.
