It’s time for some serious funfetti! This Low-Carb Funfetti Blondie recipe is made with 7 ingredients total and can be thrown together in a jiffy. Mr. Pantry and my friends love these homemade low-carb blondies and couldn’t get enough of them.
Low-Carb Funfetti Blondies Recipe
Most funfetti blondies recipes contain over a cup of sugar. My Low-Carb Funfetti Blondies contain one-quarter cup of maple syrup, and are made with a low-carb almond butter base, rather than white flour. I came upon the idea of adding sprinkles to a blondie recipe on Lexi’s Clean Kitchen. I then updated my own Almond Butter Blondie recipe (created in 2008) reducing the sweetener to make it low-carb, and turned them into Funfetti Blondies by adding sprinkles. So there you have it! Low-carb Funfetti Blondies.
Funfetti Blondies Recipe with Natural Sprinkles
This low-carb almond butter blondies recipe is made with natural sprinkles that do not contain artificial dyes and coloring. Still, since the sprinkles are made of a corn base they’re not something I eat. I created this recipe for my husband and as a labor of love for my readers. Corn is a highly allergenic food and incredibly hard on my system. If you’re like me and can’t do sprinkles, then substitute with these amazing dark chocolate chips.
How to Make Blondies with Almond Butter
All you need to make this almond butter blondie recipe is almond butter, salt, baking soda, eggs, maple syrup, and stevia, plus sprinkles or chocolate. That’s it! I promise. It’s one of those super easy one-bowl recipes that you can whip up in a jiffy. The biggest problem I have with this is that the blondies are ready to throw in the oven before it’s reached 350F°.

Why Are Blondies Called Blondies?
The other day I was chatting with my Mom and Dad. They asked what I was up to and I told them I’d been figuring out how to make Low-Carb Funfetti Blondies. My Dad then asked what is a blondie? I told him that basically a blondie is a brownie without the cocoa powder. So it’s a blonde brownie instead of a brunette brownie. Blondies typically contain white or dark chocolate chips, unless they’re my Low-Carb Funfetti Blondies, which are made with natural sprinkles.
What is a Blondie?
Essentially, a blondie is a cakey, bar version of a chocolate chip cookie. Although I baked a lot growing up, I did not meet my first blondie until I went to college. The cafeteria at Columbia had the best blondies that we used to eat after tennis practice. That’s when I fell in love with them.

You can actually make some amazing cupcakes with this recipe. And cookies! Drop onto a sheet for brownie-style cookies. For cupcakes, add to mini cupcake liners and then top the indent with some delicious grass fed organic butter cream or cream cheese icing. You can add raspberry filling too, endless ideas! Next I’m making the chocolate almond brownies with cherry sauce and whipped cream and sprinkles in cupcake style for a Black Forest cupcake :)
Happy baking!

Thanks Kaitee!

I just made these today and they were amazing!!! My youngest daughter is anti-chocolate… shocking I know! I always feel bad for her because she’s greatly outnumbered by the chocolate lovers in the family. I was so happy to make these for her and to hear her begging me for seconds. I love your recipes so much! Thank you for creating this!
Elana says
Diba, my youngest is anti-chocolate too and I made these for him :-)
Amanda Love says
I’ve actually made this 3 times already! I love it. My favorite version is with 2 eggs as it makes it a little less cakey and more bar-like. I also have been adding 1/4 teaspoon almond extract which makes it sooooo yummy as well as 1 cup of Lily’s Dark Chocolate Keto Baking Chips. I skipped the sprinkles. I wonder what it would be like made with almond flour instead of almond butter? I have a lot more of that on hand. Thanks Elana for another fabulous hit! You rock!!
Elana says
Amanda, thanks so much for letting me know this recipe is another fabulous hit!
Jen says
These are so delicious and easy to make! I skipped the Stevia, I can’t tolerate the taste. I did add a handful of chocolate chips with the sprinkles. Thank you for such an awesome recipe!

Jamie says
Can you recommend an egg substitute?
Elana says
Jamie, I haven’t tried that so not sure :-)
Jamie says
Just made these and they are amazing! Incredibly how they get so fluffy without any flour.
Elana says
Jamie, I’m so happy to hear you are enjoying the blondies!
