Recipes / Desserts / Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Blondies

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Blondies

Dairy FreeGluten FreeVeganVegetarianBy Ivy Larson  Published: 05/19/2020  Updated: 12/07/2020

I’m crazy for brownies, but I truly think I might like these Peanut Butter Blondies with chocolate chips even more. Especially since they are the closet thing I have had to a Reese’s Cup in years. One thing is for sure though, they don’t last long in our house at all! I usually like to make a double batch to freeze.

clean eating Peanut Butter Blondies

One of our favorite things to do is create recipes that are delicious while also being gluten free, dairy-free and refined sugar free.

As for the pureed dates, this nutrient-dense “whole fruit”, natural sweetener enables you to get just about any dessert as sweet as you could possibly imagine, but without refined sugar. In many recipes, including these Reese’s Cup-inspired Peanut Butter Blondies, the pureed dates contribute moisture and actually enhance the overall texture. Although they are every bit as sweet, soft, moist and gooey as the original version, the reworked Peanut Butter Blondies below are actually healthier. Go figure!

    Ivy,
    I’m going to make this recipe for the peanut butter blondies, but just to let you know that the coconut palm sugar was left out of the instructions. I’m guessing that it goes in the bowl w/ the rest of the dry ingredients! 🙂

      Yes, thank you for noting that. I will add that to the recipe right now!

    Hi ivy, wondered if you had a vegan cheese recipe for use on pizza?

      Hi Fawn, Gosh, I have to say, I have not yet found a plant-based cheese that 1) has “clean” ingredients, 2) tastes good and 3) that actually melts =( However, both Kite Hill Cheese and Dr. Cow make some AMAZING plant-based and “clean” cheeses from nuts (they are made the traditional way cheese is made from cows milk, but they use nut milk instead—so they don’t taste at all “funky”) However, Kite Hill and Dr. Cow only make soft-cheeses, so they are not optimal for pizza, but they could still potentially work if you really needed the cheese to be vegan. I personally just go ahead and use a bit of real cheese (I always look for grassfed though)—I just use only a bit. Hope this helps? And! If you do find a great vegan cheese please do let me know!!

    So if you have celiac disease or other wheat and gluten allergies or sensitivities, can you leave out the wheat germ? Should something else be used as a replacement? Thank you!

      Hi Mindy, yes, you should definitely leave out the wheat germ if you have issues with gluten. You could try a combination of ground flaxseeds combined with ground hemp seeds in a 1:1 ratio though. I have not tested that yet, but I am pretty sure it would work. If you try, please do let me know how it turns out!!
