However, I hate to admit that I've developed quite a sweet tooth through recipe development. I try all things, snack on all things, and therefore, eat all things! When it comes to desserts, I like to keep things healthy AND tasty, so I made these no-bake blondies for a group of ladies in my boxing class and they all agreed they were great! Thrilled with my newly found zero-guilt dessert recipe, I now make them from time to time and keep them in the fridge for up to 5 days. They usually don't last that long since my husband and kids have discovered them as well. three no bake blondies in a small snack box with berries Ingredients What makes these no-bake blondies a healthy snack? The ingredients! Before making any swap, check what you need, what you can substitute, and what not: Mashed banana: if you don't like it or don't have any ripe bananas on hand, try mashed pumpkin instead. The pumpkin texture is "wetter" so you'll need to add 1 to 2 teaspoons of additional coconut flour. Peanut butter: helps binding the ingredients. You can use a nut-free butter instead, just check the notes below. Honey or maple syrup: both add sweetness and bind everything together. Coconut flour: This recipe only works with coconut flour. Since coconut flour is not truly “flour” (it's ground and dehydrated coconut meat), it absorbs 10 times its weight in liquid and it does not perform like any other "flour." Mini chocolate chips: you can omit them or swap them for chopped raisins, dried fruit, or chopped nuts in the same amount. Swaps for Peanut Butter You can use any nut butter for this recipe. However, nut butters that have a runnier/thinner consistency tend to need more time to set or 1 to 2 teaspoons of additional coconut flour. For a nut-free alternative, use sunflower butter, pea butter, soy butter, or sesame butter. closeup view of freshly made no-bake blondies in slices How to Make No-Bake Blondies Making these healthy no-bake blondies is a very simple process. Can you mix ingredients in a bowl with a spoon and then press them down into a container? Seriously, it's that easy. Check out the steps: Prep Line a loaf pan with parchment paper to remove the blondies easily. Combine Mash the banana in a bowl, and then add the peanut butter, honey, and vanilla. Once creamy, add the coconut flour and combine well. When the texture in the bowl has the consistency of playdough, and you pinch it, you know it’ll hold together. Finally, add the chocolate chips. Refrigerate Transfer the mixture to the loaf pan and press it with your hand to spread it evenly. The blondies will be firm enough after 1-2 hours in the fridge. First time making blondies? Watch this short video to see how: ► Storing Leftovers I've always found that freezing coconut flour goods changed the texture so I would not recommend freezing these healthy blondies bars. The recipe doesn't yield enough for an army so you probably won't have many leftovers to freeze anyway! The good news is that they last in the fridge for up to a week. To store leftovers in the fridge, wrap each square individually or place them in an airtight container and refrigerate them for a week.
