These blondies are made from pantry and fridge staples and come together in one bowl. I’ve been adding measurements in grams to baking recipes because it really saves on dishes to do it this way (get this kitchen scale if you don’t have one). They’re dense, chewy, and chocolatey with crispy edges. Serve them warm topped with vanilla ice cream!
Servings 9 blondies
Prep Time 10 minutes 
Cook Time 25 minutes Ingredients
- 6 tbsp (86g) butter
- 1 egg
- ⅓ cup (54g) coconut sugar
- 1 tablespoon (14g) vanilla extract
- 2 cups (223g) almond flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup (80g) dark chocolate chips or chunks
- Vanilla ice cream (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 9×9 or 8×8-inch baking dish with butter or oil.
- In a medium microwavable blow, add the butter and microwave it in 15 second increments until just melted. Let it cool for a couple minutes if it gets super hot. Add the egg and whisk until smooth. Add the coconut sugar and vanilla and whisk again until combined.
- Stir in the almond four, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Transfer to the baking dish and spread out into an even layer.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are a deep golden brown and the top is light golden brown.
- Let cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing. Since they are gluten-free, they can be a bit crumbly. The longer you wait to slice them, the better! Serve warm topped with ice cream.
Items you can prep ahead (optional)
- Mix together the dry ingredients (flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt).
Substitutions:
- To make gluten-free, substitute the flours with 2 cups of all-purpose 1:1 gluten-free flour mix.
- To make dairy-free, substitute the butter with 6 tablespoons of melted coconut oil.
- To make vegan, see above + try this using 2 flax eggs.
Storage:
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
Leftovers + Repurposing:
- Reheat leftover pancakes in the toaster or toaster oven. It gets them nice and crispy!
- These taste really yummy on their own so they make a really delicious snack.
