Description

These healthy banana blondies are gluten free and paleo friendly.  They're chewy and tender with a sweet banana flavor and chunks of chocolate in every bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup mashed banana (125g) about one large ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup almond butter, 
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 Tbsp coconut flour (21g)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup miniature dark chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8" x 8" glass baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients. This includes the mashed banana, almond butter, coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  3. Add in the dry ingredients (coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt) and whisk until well combined.
  4. Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula or wooden spoon.
  5. Pour the batter into your lined baking dish. If desired, top with more miniature chocolate chips.
  6. Place the banana blondies in your preheated oven and bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes.

  7. After baking, let the blondies cool to room temperature in the baking dish. I recommend setting them in the fridge overnight to chill. This makes cutting the bars much easier. However, they taste great either way!
  8. Store the blondies in an airtight container in the fridge, up to one week.  Or in the freezer up to one month.
