Easy Almond Flour Blondies

If you love the flavor of a classic cookie, you are in for a treat with these almond flour blondies. Almond flour and coconut flour have really exploded as a flour substitute with more and more of us going gluten free or keto. I have done keto diets multiple times with great success, but I’ve found the hardest part for me is always the “no desserts” part. I’m here to say you can have your cake and eat it too and in this case blondies!

Almond flour blondies have cocount and almond flour as a base with golden monk fruit to give it that rich flavor. You may have noticed monk fruit in quite a few of my recipes like keto chocolate mug cake and frozen carrot cake whoopie pies. It’s an amazing sugar substitute without a weird aftertaste that some substitutes have.

You do not have to substitute flavor when it comes to these healthy almond flour blondies! Just because they are gluten free and keto does not mean they are dry and tasteless. This blondie recipe really does taste wonderful and is perfect for any occasion. I especially love they are easy to make and they are a quick to make. If you get unexpected company, don’t worry because they can be mixed up and ready to enjoy in no time at all!

What is the Difference Between and Brownie and a Blondie?

A brownie and a blondie are closely related because they are both cookie bars. This means they are both baked in a pan and cut into “bars” to serve. Like the brownie, the blondie is dense and soft with chewy edges. The brownie is made traditionally with a cocoa base and it’s dark brown in color. The blondie is more of a vanilla, brown sugar base and light in color. They remind me of a chocolate chip cookie, but in a cookie bar form.

Ingredients to Make Almond Flour Blondies

• Almond flour
• Coconut flour
• Golden monk fruit or raw cane sugar (cane sugar is not keto)
• Baking powder
• Eggs
• Melted butter
• Vanilla extract
• Dark chocolate chips-make sure to use keto chocolate chips if you want to keep the sugar out.

Directions to Make Blondies

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare an 8’’ x 8’’ inches baking tray with baking paper.
2. Beat eggs in a large bowl. Add monk fruit, baking powder, melted butter and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
3. Add almond and coconut flour and stir until combined.
4. Fold in dark chocolate chips and stir again.
5. Place the batter in the prepared metal baking tray and extend it evenly.
6. Bake it for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
7. Let it cool completely before transferring.

Tips for Almond Flour Blondies

• Bake them in a metal 8X8 pan and not glass. The metal will become hotter while baking and will give you an even heat on the blondies. This will help the middle bake more evenly.
• The blondies are done when a toothpick comes out clean. Make sure you poke it in the middle of the pan to check for doneness. DO NOT OVERBAKE!
• Add some pecans or walnuts for a crunchy bite.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to seven days.
• Freeze them in a Ziploc bag for up to five months. Just set them out on the counter to defrost before eating. The chocolate might melt if you try to defrost in the microwave.
