How to make Healthy Strawberry Blondies 🍓
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180C. Grease a 9x9” baking dish.
Blend all wet ingredients in a food processor until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
Gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Avoid over-mixing.
Carefully fold in the sliced strawberries.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.

Bake for 30 minutes or until the blondies are cooked throughout and golden brown.
Allow the blondies to cool once out of the oven.
Melt the white chocolate in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until smooth, then drizzle over the cooled blondies.
Slice and enjoy!
Tips & Tricks
Oat flour - I simply ground 1+1/4 cup regular/rolled oats in a food processor to get 1 cup of oat flour!
Whey protein - I used this to increase the protein content of these blondies, but this is completely optional. You can substitute for more oat/normal flour.
FAQS
Can I substitute chickpeas with another ingredient?
Yes, you can substitute chickpeas with white beans or black beans for a similar texture, but it may alter the flavor slightly.
Is it possible to make these blondies gluten-free?
Absolutely! You can replace the normal white flour with a gluten-free flour blend to make the blondies gluten-free.
How should I store the leftover blondies?
Store the blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh ones?
Yes, you can use frozen strawberries, but make sure to thaw and drain them well to avoid excess moisture in the batter.
What can I use instead of Greek yogurt?
You can substitute Greek yogurt with any plant-based yogurt or applesauce for a dairy-free option.
