Very dry. Wish I had added another egg. Not sure where I went wrong. Used all of the exact ingredients. Hmmm

Bummer I’m sorry! Maybe it just needs to be cooked less? They are a bit more cakey than regular blondies but shouldn’t be too dry.

Hi! I want to make these for thanksgiving! One question: Do you measure the coconut oil after it’s been melted? Or does the recipe call for 1/4 solid coconut oil. Thanks!!

Do you think brown rice flour would work well as a substitute for almond flour?

I have a friend that has done that in some pancake recipe and she said it worked great–let me know how it turns out!

Can I use cashew butter instead of almond?

I would think you could. The flavor would probably be different but texture should be similar.

I made these for the first time tonight & used peanut butter! The “dough” was divine….they’ll be ready in just a few minutes! Hope i don’t eat the entire pan myself!

Have made these 4 times now…subbed the honey with pure maple syrup and added 1/4 cup coconut flour to the batter to make them more like bar cookies. Family eats the whole dish of them in minutes, they are our new go to choc chip cookie recipe. Thank you!!!!!!

Overall incredibly tasty

Can I substitute almond butter with something else? I have almond meal, would that work?
Thanks!

You could try subbing almond meal or flour–the texture might be different but they should still taste good!

These are one of my favorite grain free desserts. I fixed them for a get together with some organic vanilla ice cream on top. They were a hit!! I’m thinking I need to stop looking at all the desserts to make;)

I made these and although they were tasty, they were kind of cakey. Do you think I could skip the egg?
Jennifer

You could sure try!

Okay, I had to try again! I skipped the egg, did raw maple syrup instead of honey and cut down to 1 cup almond flour-oh and a couple Tbsp. of ground chia seeds. So gooey! These were awesome!

I made these vegan by using:
1 tbsp flax seed meal + 3 tbsp water (to replace egg)
a mixture of half agave nectar and half black strap molasses for the honey
vegan chocolate chips
this was the first time I’d ever baked something gluten free (I always bake vegan) and I’m pleasantly surprised with the results!
