Gluten Free Blondies

Gluten Free Blondies have been a highly requested recipe and they were worth the wait! I guarantee, once you make a batch of these, they’ll become part of your weekly baking rotation.

Blondies are so easy to make, faster than cookies, and satisfy that sweet tooth 1000x over!

Once again, I’ve used my favorite store-bought gluten free flour blend – King Arthur Gluten-Free Measure for Measure Flour. Don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for the new white packaging that’s rolling out.

Be sure to let me know where and when you find it!

What is a Blondie?

Blondies are basically blonde brownies. Since blondies have a higher fat to flour ratio than cookies, they’ve got that same irresistible rich, chewy texture that makes brownies so amazing.

However, unlike brownies, blondies don’t contain cocoa powder or melted chocolate which keeps their color light.

Chocolate Chip Blondies

Traditionally, blondies are made with white chocolate chips. However, I used a combination of semi-sweet chocolate chunks and white chocolate chips. 

The semi-sweet chocolate cuts a little bit of that sweetness and balance the flavor of white chocolate and brown sugar perfectly. For a fun flavor twist, sub in butterscotch chips to make butterscotch blondies!

Ingredients for Gluten Free Blondies

• King Arthur Gluten-Free Measure for Measure Flour
• Baking Powder
• Fine Sea Salt
• Unsalted Butter
• Light Brown Sugar
• Eggs
• Pure Vanilla Extract
• Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips or Chunks
• White Chocolate Chips

Equipment Needed to Make Homemade Blondies

• Large microwave-safe bowl
• Small Mixing Bowl
• Whisk
• Mixing Spoon
• Measuring Cups + Spoons
• 9×13 baking pan – prefer using a metal pan with straight sides for baking brownies, blondies, and bar cookies.
• Parchment Paper or Aluminum Foil

How to Make Blondies

Step 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9×13 baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil, leaving enough overhang to use as a sling to remove the blondies from the pan. Spray with non-stick spray and set aside.

Step 2. Whisk the gluten free flour, baking powder, and salt together in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 3. Add the melted butter and brown sugar to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until the eggs are completely incorporated.

Step 4. Stir in the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the semisweet and white chocolate chips.

Step 5. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, spreading it evenly throughout the pan. Bake on the center rack for 22-24 minutes or until just done. Don’t overbake!

Step 6. Cool completely on a wire rack before removing from the pan and cutting into bars.

Tips for Making Blonde Brownies

• Use cold eggs to prevent the blondies from rising too much while baking.
• Cool the melted butter slightly before mixing in the eggs and sugar. You don’t want the butter to be hot (see above about cold eggs).
• Don’t overbake! The blondies will get dry and crumbly if you bake them too long. It’s better to slightly under-bake than over-bake, IMO. 
• Store in the refrigerator. I find that blondies stay fresher when stored in the refrigerator. They dry out faster when kept at room temperature.
• Feel free to sub 1 cup of chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts) for a cup of chocolate chips. I chose to keep them nut free due to personal taste. (AKA I have a kid who won’t eat anything with nuts baked into it but will happily snack on raw nuts 🙄)
