Ingredients needed to make healthier almond flour blondies

almond flour:  I love using almond flour in baked goods. It is only made with one ingredient: ground almonds! Which makes it a healthy alternative from traditional flour. It is lower in carb and higher in fat content than traditional flour but it also has many other nutrients like vitamin E and magnesium! 

coconut flour: Coconut flour a slight coconut taste and smell. It blends nicely with the almond flour in this recipe and creates the perfect texture.

baking soda: Baking soda helps increase the volume and creates structure.

eggs: Eggs add structure and moisture to these blondies.

almond butter: I love adding nut butters to my bake goods! They are a great fat substitute and add flavor and texture.

coconut sugar: Coconut sugar adds the perfect sweetness to these blondies. I love baking with coconut sugar as it is a slightly healthier alternative than regular sugar!

maple syrup: Adding a hint of maple syrup makes adds moisture and chewiness to these blondies. It pairs nicely with the coconut sugar to make the perfect sweetness.

applesauce: I love using applesauce to replace fat ingredients in recipes. Typically, you can replace it 1:1 for liquid fat!

vanilla: Vanilla adds the perfect hint of flavor to these vanilla blondies.

white chocolate chips: What are blondies without white chocolate chips? Adding white chocolate makes these blondies absolutely perfect. They are soft, chewy and loaded with white chocolate. Omit the while chocolate to make these paleo!
