ingredients

Icing

  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons Almond Milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Refined Coconut Oil
  • 1/8 teaspoon Flaked Sea Salt
  • 1-3 drops Pink Gel Food Coloring
  • Garnish Sprinkles

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease an 8 by 8-inch baking pan. Line the pan with parchment, leaving a slight overhang above the pan. Lightly grease the parchment with refined coconut oil. Set pan aside.

  • Step 2

    Place European Sugar Cubes in a zip storage bag. Place the bag on an impact-safe surface like a cutting board. Using a small rubber mallet or meat tenderizer, crush the large cubes into medium-sized coarse pieces, a little larger than pea-sized. Set aside.

  • Step 3

    In a separate bowl, whisk the almond flour, baking powder, and salt and set aside.

  • Step 4

    Combine light brown sugar, refined coconut oil, molasses, lightly beaten egg, nutritional yeast, and vanilla.

  • Step 5

    Add the almond flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients.

  • Step 6

    Fold in the European Sugar Cubes/Pearl Sugar and Walnuts into the mixture. Pour the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.

  • Step 7

    Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven. Cool on a wire rack.

  • Step 8

    While the Blondies are baking, in a small mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar, almond milk, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt until smooth. This next step is optional. Add a drop or two of pink (or color of choice) gel food coloring. Mix until you the desired color is achieved. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside

  • Step 9

    Once cooled, garnish with flaked sea salt. Remove the blondies from the pan and drizzle with the icing. Decorate with sprinkles.

  • Step 10

    Time to serve and enjoy. ¡Buen Provecho!
