Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large organic egg, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup almond butter (on the runny side works best)
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar (regular cane sugar also works)
- 2 tablespoons salted butter, softened
- 1/3 cup milk of choice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups oat flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Chocolate Glaze
- 3/4 cup chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup milk of choice
Instructions
- To make the blondies: Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a 8×8-inch square glass baking dish with parchment paper, with overhang to allow you to use the paper to lift the whole blondie out of the pan later on.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, almond butter, coconut sugar, and butter until smooth. Whisk in the milk.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk to incorporate.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 22 minutes. Let cool before adding the glaze.
- To make the glaze, melt the chocolate chips with the milk in a small saucepan over low heat, whisking often. Once smooth and uniform, pour over the cooled blondie. Transfer into the fridge to set.
- Once the glaze has set, carefully remove from the pan and slice into 12 squares.
Notes
To make vegan: Replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flax mixed with 2.5 tbsp water) and butter with coconut oil.
