Paleo Almond Butter Blondies contain only 6 ingredients and are super easy to make! All you need for this amazing paleo dessert recipe is almond butter, eggs, honey, salt, baking soda, and chocolate chips. Really, it’s that simple!
Although Paleo Almond Butter Blondies are flourless, and made with an almond butter base they taste quite cakey. My husband says he can’t tell the difference between these healthy blondies and the “regular” kind!
In other rave reviews, I’ve cooked up this recipe more than a dozen times for my little league team. Even the batches I considered “failures” were devoured by those testers. Let’s not forget, I coach a bunch of 10 year boys who drink blue gatorade and are used to eating high-sugar, all-American desserts, not the healthy paleo desserts that I make. Although these flourless paleo bars are not that sweet, my team absolutely loved ’em.

My Paleo Almond Butter Blondie recipe is based on one from Kelly at Celiac Chicks. She traces the original recipe back to one from 2003 in Family Circle magazine.

Hello everyone-
I just wanted to let you know I showcased these Almond Butter Blondies in our Mother’s Day Celebration Dinner (for my in-laws) and it was a huge success! Most “celebrations” in my area include biscuits and gravy so I have to spearhead an event if it is going to be celebrative and healthy at the same time. As we were all finishing up with our blondies, I communicated… “and they’re good for you too!” The reply from the table came back… “of course they are!” I’m always trying to upgrade the southern traditions here in Tennessee :)

Elana – I am a total novice in the kitchen, and even I made the most delicious Almond Butter Blondies yesterday! Thank you for the easy recipe – they were a hit at our Mother’s day brunch!

Just wanted you to know that i gave the BBQ sauce a try, and it turned out great!
Courtney says
Hooray! I am so thankful for this recipe. This completes my menu for Mother’s Day… Our Menu includes Baked Coconut Shrimp (I’m going to use almond flour and unsweetened shredded coconut), Fresh Grouper Baked in parchment, Spinach Salad with Strawberries and Pecans and ALMOND BUTTER BLONDIES. I will let you all know how it goes. To all of the mothers out there, Happy Mother’s Day.

I can’t wait to make these today. They look awesome. What recipe do you have for making almond butter? I like to make things from scratch if I can.
Also, just wanted everyone to know that General Mills is now making Rice Chex gluten-free. It will be nice to make Chex mix again!!

My goodness Elana. This will be an absolute all-time favourite in my house. We are huge almond butter fans.
Pretty confident these will be made at our house tomorrow.

Hi Elana!
Now that I am done with my last.final.ever, I am all about the baking! This looks delicious and healthy! But, first, a few questions about almond butter:
1) What size jar of almond butter do you use?
2) How oily is the almond butter? I usually make my own almond butter in the Cuisinart and process it with almond oil until smooth and creamy.
Also, do you think steps 1-4 could work in the Cuisinart instead of using an electric hand mixer? I try to get dirty as few bowls as possible…
Best!
