Almond Flour Blondies! Chewy, gooey, and filled with delicious morsels of chocolate, white chocolate, and pecans!
If you had to choose between blondies or brownies which side would you be on?
I have to say that I’m usually a chocolate loving girl – but I’d take one of these blondies over a brownie any day! Thy are chewy, decadent and rich.
This is my Mom’s blond brownie recipe and it was the very first thing I learned to bake. To this day I still make them and people go crazy for them! Nobody will guess these are gluten-free.
I converted my Mom’s recipe to be gluten-free with fantastic results.
I use almond flour in these bars, and they taste just as delicious as the ones I made growing up.
These blonde brownies are chewy, gooey, and filled with delicious morsels of chocolate, white chocolate, and pecans.
You can also make these with any gluten-free all-purpose flour you like with great results. It is a really forgiving and easy recipe.
Feel free to switch up the mix-ins to whatever you like. Walnuts, dark or milk chocolate chips would all be delicious.
Almond flour makes baked goods so delicious, and these are no exception. These blonde brownies are one of my go-to dessert recipes!

I softened the coconut oil butter (miyokos) and added 3/4 cup more of almond flour to get a more “dough” like consistency. Then I chilled the dough and they came out perfect.

These were literally so delicious!! I made them for my Aunt (whos gluten free, duh) and even those of us who don’t have to necessarily have to eat gluten free thought they were amazing. I am so excited to make them again. I’m going to do just semi sweet chocolate and add walnuts this time! So good!! Make them!

I made this recipe for the first time last night and OMG it was delicious! Has anyone ever tried it in cookie form? Just thinking portion control might be easier that way lol…

These are delicious! Made these twice; once I used all butterscotch chips and once I used half butterscotch chips and half chocolate chips. Both are great. Both times I used only half of the white sugar.

These are my favorite of all time! As a kid I always loved blondies, and when I had to go GF I thought my time with baked goods was over, until I found this website. All of the recipes are incredible and this one is my favorite! I even have friends ask me to make them for them. These will not disappoint!
