If you had to choose between blondies or brownies which side would you be on?

I have to say that I’m usually a chocolate loving girl – but I’d take one of these blondies over a brownie any day! Thy are chewy, decadent and rich.

This is my Mom’s blond brownie recipe and it was the very first thing I learned to bake. To this day I still make them and people go crazy for them! Nobody will guess these are gluten-free.

I converted my Mom’s recipe to be gluten-free with fantastic results.

I use almond flour in these bars, and they taste just as delicious as the ones I made growing up.

You can also make these with any gluten-free all-purpose flour you like with great results. It is a really forgiving and easy recipe.

Feel free to switch up the mix-ins to whatever you like. Walnuts, dark or milk chocolate chips would all be delicious.

Almond flour makes baked goods so delicious, and these are no exception. These blonde brownies are one of my go-to dessert recipes!

    Just Wow!! Ooey gooey and a total hit! Used butterscotch instead of white chips. Honestly, adding a little coconut shred would have made this similar to a magic cookie bar without the sweetened condensed milk. Will definitely be repeating this one!

    These are delicious, but a bit sweet for us. We left out the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and they were still plenty sweet. Great recipe!

    I found this recipe many years ago and it is a family favorite! When my adult child comes home for a visit, she always requests these. I have even served them to my younger kids as a breakfast treat (high protein). So yummy.

  4. I found this recipe several years ago when I found out I had celiac. My sister-in-law will request these whenever I offer to bring something to a family gathering. They are well enjoyed but everyone! Thank you for sharing.

    1. I’m so glad honored they’re a favorite at your family gatherings! Thanks for the comment 🙂

    I love this recipe. It is so easy and delicious. My boyfriend frequently asks me to make these blondies. I eat gluten free (celiac disease) and my boyfriend can eat gluten. He loves these blondies.
