Peanut Butter & Jelly Blondies (Gluten Free + Refined Sugar Free)

  • Author: Rachel Conners
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 25 minutes
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 16 bars 1x
  • Category: Dessert

Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup coconut oil (melted)
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • ¾ cup coconut sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (3 oz) almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • ½ cup fresh strawberries (chopped)
  • ¼ cup refined sugar free strawberry jam (I used this strawberry rhubarb chia jam)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper or foil and grease lightly.
  2. Melt coconut oil in a large microwaveable bowl in the microwave, about 15-20 seconds. Add peanut butter and coconut sugar and whisk to combine. Add the egg and vanilla extract and whisk to combine. Add the almond flour and coconut flour and stir until fully incorporated. Fold in the strawberries. Spread 3/4 of the batter into prepared pan, smoothing it lightly with a spatula or offset knife. Dollop the strawberry jam over the top in tablespoon drops and swirl into the batter with a knife. Dollop the remaining batter over the top.
  3. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow bars to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving into 16 squares. I like to refrigerate them before cutting to make them easier to cut. Bars can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

If you’re purchasing jam, look for a jam that is 100% fruit to keep these blondies refined sugar free.
