Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • ¼ cup (60ml) honey or maple syrup
  • ¼ cup (60g) unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) almond flour (or oat flour)
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (90g) sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • In a bowl, mix mashed bananas, honey (or maple syrup), applesauce, egg, and vanilla until well combined.
  • Stir in almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until a smooth batter forms.
  • Fold in chocolate chips or nuts, if using.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing into squares.

Notes

  • Best Bananas: Use overripe bananas with brown spots for natural sweetness and a moist texture.
  • Flour Options: Swap almond flour for oat flour for a nut-free version.
  • Extra Moistness: Adding 1-2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt makes the blondies even softer.
  • Dairy-Free Option: Use coconut oil instead of butter and dairy-free chocolate chips if adding chocolate.
  • Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week. They also freeze well for up to 3 months.
