Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup oats or oat flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

Add-ins

  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent the blondies from sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, maple syrup or honey, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in the oats or oat flour, baking soda, and sea salt into the wet mixture until evenly incorporated without overmixing.
  4. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Add most of the dark chocolate chips to the batter, reserving a small handful to sprinkle on top for a visually appealing finish.
  5. Spread Batter: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly using a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips evenly over the top.
  6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the blondies turn golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares to ensure they hold their shape. Serve and enjoy as a wholesome breakfast or a healthy snack.

Notes

  • You can substitute oat flour with rolled oats for a heartier texture; just pulse oats briefly in a blender if you want a finer consistency.
  • Maple syrup and honey can be used interchangeably depending on your preference or dietary needs.
  • For a vegan option, replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tbsp water, let sit for 5 minutes).
  • Store blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • Dark chocolate chips add antioxidants, but feel free to omit or substitute with nuts or dried fruit for variety.
