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’ve mede these a few times, vegan version, replaced eggs with Aquafaba and they turned out amazing, second time added a bit of gluten-free flour and replaced the egg for flax seeds and they didn’t come out as chewy as the first time. Today I’m going to try no gluten-free flour and chia egg instead. Wish me good luck!
love the recipe, next time I’m thinking about adding 1/4 coconut or casava flour
These are wonderful! We made them several times during quarantine !
Simply amazing. I made these with coconut oil and added pecans and shredded coconut. My normally very healthy family polished these off in less than 24 hours. My parents forbid me from making them again.
This recipe came out perfect and it was so easy! Thank you!
Delicious….
These look amazing! If I only have an 8×8 glass pan. Can I use that? Maybe bake a little longer? Thanks!
Can I sub the sugar for honey or maple syrup?
Our social distancing has led us to baking. These were excellent. Thanks for sharing!
I’m so glad you liked them! We’re doing a lot of baking too 🙂
Absolutely delicious! I will make these again for sure! Recipe is perfect!
I’m so glad you liked them! 🙂

These are my go to blondies, loved by all.
Im not sure what I did wrong the flavor is great but the texture is gritty its my first time using almond flour maybe I should try glutern free flower idk help!!
Am I using the wrong almond flour?
The nutrition value…. what is the serving size?
Or is that for the entire pan?
The serving size is 1/24th of the recipe. I hope this helps!
