    Dairy Free Blondies

    Dairy free blondie cookie bars are pretty popular in my house because my little guy doesn't like chocolate (which rules out brownies). I love this recipe because it only takes minutes to make, there's no rolling, cutting, shaping, or scooping of dough required, and I usually have all the ingredients on hand. The final result is a moist, crumbly, deliciously sweet cookie bar that the whole family goes crazy for.

    The recipe for these blondies can be easily adapted to suit your dietary needs, and they happen to be vegan. I've used both peanut butter and Sunbutter with delicious results. Any nut or seed butter with texture similar to peanut butter should work, so feel free use what you like. These have also been tested with almond, coconut, rice, and sunflower milk, and all worked perfectly. Coconut sugar can also be used to substitute for the brown sugar.

    Dairy Free Nut Free Blondies

    For stir in options, I like dairy free chocolate chips, chocolate chunks, or candies like No-No's. Other delicious options are mini marshmallows, peanut butter chips, sprinkles, nuts, or candy corn at Halloween. 

    It should be noted that these blondies are best when allowed to cool completely, preferably overnight. Letting them sit overnight allows them to set, and results in a moist blondie. Of course, they are delicious straight out of the oven, but they tend to fall apart easier when not left to cool. 

    These are fantastic as-is, and are especially heavenly when warmed up and topped with some homemade banana ice cream!

      Did you already reduce the baking powder so it wouldn't react with the chlorophyl in the sunbutter and turn the blondies green?
      Thanks!

        Hi Anya, the amount of baking powder in the recipe worked perfectly for me. As you can see from the photo, no green blondies here! 🙂

      This was the first time I ever had sunbutter. I bought unsweetned and unsalted. I really enjoyed the chewy texter and flavor of these brownie type bars. I want to try it with Chocolate Peanut butter next time 🙂
