almond chocolate blondies

Almond-Chocolate Blondies

  1 cup almond butter

  2/3 cup honey (clover or orange blossom)

  1/4 cup coconut milk

  3 large eggs, at room temperature

  2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

  3/4 cup white whole-wheat flour

  3/4 cup ground flaxseed

  3/4 teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder

  1/4 teaspoon baking soda

  3/4 cup 70% cocoa mini chocolate chunks

        Olive oil spray for the pan

 

  Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray an 8-inch
  square glass baking dish with olive oil. In a

  large bowl, place almond butter, honey,

  coconut milk, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk

  together until well blended and smooth. In a

  separate bowl, whisk together flour,

  flaxseed, baking powder, and baking soda

  until well mixed. Add dry ingredients to

  almond butter mixture and stir just until

  blended. Then stir in chocolate chunks.

  Scrape the batter into prepared dish and

  bake until browned around the edges and a

  toothpick comes out with moist crumbs

  clinging to it, about 35 minutes. Let cool

  about 15 minutes before cutting.

 

  Cut into 20 squares and serve. (Store at

  room temperature an airtight container

  for up to 3 days.)
