Keto blondies bring a guilt-free dessert experience to low-carb enthusiasts seeking sweet satisfaction. Rich almond flour and sugar-free chocolate chips create a delightful treat without compromising dietary goals.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups (150g) almond flour
- ⅓ cup (70g) granulated erythritol
- ⅓ cup (60g) sugar-free chocolate chips
- ½ cup (115g/4 oz) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Mixture Preparation: Vigorously whisk melted butter, erythritol, egg, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl until perfectly smooth and well-incorporated.
- Dry Ingredient Integration: Gently fold sifted almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt into the wet mixture, creating a uniform batter without overmixing to maintain a delicate texture.
- Final Batter Enhancement: Delicately fold in chopped pecans and sugar-free chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough with minimal stirring to preserve the blondies’ tender consistency.
- Baking Process: Spread the batter evenly into a parchment-lined baking pan, then bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 20-25 minutes, watching for golden-brown edges and a slightly soft center that sets when cooled.
- Cooling and Serving: Allow blondies to cool completely in the pan, which helps them firm up and develop a perfect texture. Once cooled, lift out using parchment paper, slice into precise squares, and serve at room temperature for optimal taste and enjoyment.
Notes
- Prevent Over-Mixing: Gently fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients to maintain a light, tender blondie texture without developing tough gluten strands.
- Control Moisture Level: Use a light hand when incorporating mix-ins to prevent weighing down the batter, ensuring a soft and delicate crumb.
- Precise Baking Time: Watch closely during the final minutes of baking; golden brown edges indicate doneness while keeping the center slightly moist for a rich, fudgy consistency.
- Cooling Technique: Allow blondies to cool completely in the pan to help them set properly and develop a stable, clean-cutting texture that won’t crumble when sliced.
