These cute little Blondie Brownie Bites are so easy to make and trust me… no one will be able to tell they are Gluten, Sugar, and Dairy Free. They mix up really quickly and with using Almond Butter as the base, they can be very filling as well.
If you have a little sweet tooth and don’t want to overindulge, Almond Butter Blondie Bites have the right amount of sweetness, to cut right to those cravings.
Chia Seed Powder
There are a few things that can be substituted for eggs as a binding agent and Chia Seed Powder is great for that. With those of us on an autoimmune diet, seeds can be a little problematic for some. Which is why I used sprouted seeds.
Sprouted seeds have been proven to be much easier on the digestive system. They have anti-nutrients making it easier for your body to absorb all the nutrients they contain. It’s best to use sprouted chia seed powder for this recipe, although you don’t have to, you can use the regular chia seed powder. And, good luck trying finding ‘sprouted’ chia seed powder though. But I found a way around that…
My best recommendation for that is to buy Pure Living – Organic Sprouted Chia and after trial and error, I have learned you can blend the seeds to make powder, duhhh. Place the seeds into the blender and Voila! Now, you have sprouted chia seed powder.
Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips
I have looked high and low for the best sugar-free chocolate chips. This has not been an easy task! I want flavor along with quality and not a bunch of chemical substitutes or soy. Oh yeah… and I don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for sugar-free chocolate chips.
And, I believe I’ve found them! Bake Believe All Natural Baking Chips are aaaammmmazing. Made with stevia and other simple ingredients, these bad boys can be found at Walmart for like $4! Which is half of the price of other sugar-free trendy chocolates out there.
I recommend the semi-sweet ones… I like those the best and they give these Blondie the perfect amount of sweetness. Hence why I said stevia is optional in the recipe.
Enjoy!
Most brownies are the best when eaten right out of the oven and hot. But these Blondies need to be cooled off before eating because they will fall apart. Let them cool or toss them in the fridge and eat the next day. To be honest… they are actually a lot better the day after (I eat them for breakfast) with a nice cup of Roasted Chicory Root Coffee! Enjoy…
Almond Butter Blondie Bites
