Chocolate Chip Quinoa Blondies

These Chocolate Chip Quinoa Blondies may be the best dessert I have made in a while.  I already have several Quinoa Brownies and also Quinoa Cookies on the blog.

I just never occurred to me to create a quinoa blondie recipe until now. I am so glad I did.  This opens the door up to different varieties in the future too!

Flourless Almond Joy Blondies (Vegan)

As you know, I am a big fan of flourless treats.  These Flourless Almond Joy Blondies are the latest creation.  I got the idea as I was trying to go to sleep the other night.  Yes I think about food all the time lol!  So in the morning I stopped by the store to pick up everything that I needed .

These Flourless Almond Joy Blondies were a huge hit.  Especially with my 5 year old, who kept trying to sneak more and more bites.  She had no idea these were made with beans!  If you like flourless recipes, you may also like my Flourless Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies or my Flourless Healthy Chocolate Muffins.

Flourless Blondies (Vegan and Gluten Free)

Flourless Blondies.  I was recently asked by a reader to create a flourless blondie recipe.  So that is how these flourless vegan blondies came about.

If you had my super moist flourless brownies, you know that beans can work very well in dessert recipes.  These flourless blondies are so yummy.

I was eating the batter right out of the food processor.  That is one good thing about making healthy vegan desserts.  You can eat the batter without any fear of getting sick. 🙂

These healthy blondies are so good!  I am telling you no one will ever know there is beans in these.  Kind of like my peanut butter cookies.

My kids were totally fooled!  These blondies are vegan, gluten free.  If you want to make them grain free, you could probably use quinoa flakes in place of the oats.

Quinoa is technically a seed, not a grain.

Grain Free Blondies (Vegan Too)

Grain Free Blondies you guys!!  I don’t know if you have noticed, but I am trying to branch out and create more recipes that are grain and gluten free.

I have already done so with my Grain Free Blueberry Tart and my Healthy Key Lime Tart.

Since the gluten free and grain free diets seem to be a trend nowadays, I thought you may enjoy this recipe.  These grain free blondies may be the start of many more grain free desserts in the future.

 

Grain Free Blondies

 

I under cooked mine slightly because I wanted to maintain a gooey and soft center.  Another awesome thing about these blondies is that they are only sweetened with dates.  I love dates!
