These wholesome blondies make the perfect grab-and-go breakfast or a nourishing snack. Made with simple, clean ingredients like creamy peanut butter, protein-rich Greek yogurt, and naturally sweetened with honey or maple syrup, they offer a balanced treat that’s both satisfying and nutritious. With the option to add mix-ins like dark chocolate chips or nuts, you can customize them to your taste while keeping things healthy and delicious.
Ingredients
1 cup creamy peanut butter (natural, unsweetened preferred)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or full-fat, depending on preference)
1/4 cup honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
1/4 cup almond flour (or regular flour if not gluten-free)
1/2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
Optional mix-ins: dark chocolate chips, chopped nuts, chia seeds, or dried fruit
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until fully combined. If adding mix-ins, fold them in gently at this stage.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (a few crumbs are okay).
Let the blondies cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice into squares or bars and enjoy.
Notes
These blondies store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them individually wrapped. They’re ideal for meal prep and can be a satisfying high-protein snack for both kids and adults.
