Servings: 16 blondies
Calories: 155kcal
Ingredients
for the blondies:
- ½ cup unsalted butter dairy free
- ⅓ cup cane sugar
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoon water)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cup all purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
for the glaze:
- 1 tablespoon espresso powder or instant coffee
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon dairy free milk
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Grease an 8x8 baking dish or line it with parchment paper then set aside.
- Cream butter, cane sugar and brown sugar together for 1 minute; then, add the flax egg and vanilla and stir to combine.
- To that same bowl, add the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt and stir until the batter comes together (be patient, this might take a minute).
- Scoop the batter into the baking pan and use a rubber spatula or your hands to press it into the baking pan. Bake the blondies for 16-18 minutes, or until the edges have set and a toothpick comes out clean. Immediately transfer the baking pan to a cooling rack and allow the bars to cool in the pan completely.
- Once the blondies have cooled to room temperature, add the glaze. Whisk all glaze ingredients together, then use a spoon to drizzle it over top. Enjoy!
