Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy, drippy natural almond butter (just roasted almonds)
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup chocolate chips, plus 2 tablespoons for sprinkling on top
  • Fancy sea salt, for sprinkling on top

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Spray with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the almond butter, eggs, coconut sugar, maple syrup, melted coconut oil and vanilla extract until smooth. 
  • Fold in the coconut flour, baking soda, salt and ½ cup chocolate chips. Add dough to prepared pan and spread evenly towards the edges. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until tester comes out somewhat clean. Allow bars to cool for 15-20 minutes before cutting into 16 squares. Enjoy!

Notes

It's important to use a drippy natural almond butter in this recipe (just roasted almonds as the ingredient) to make sure you get the right consistency with the blondies.
To make these vegan: I haven't tried making these vegan, but I suggest testing them out with 2 flax eggs if you are willing!
