Spring is here and we are celebrating with this super easy, one bowl chocolate chunk vegan blondies! Don’t let the golden delicious color fool you, these vegan blondies are all the gooey, crunchy, chocolatey goodness you want from a brownie but in a lighter spring version. They are so quick and easy to make they only take one bowl, a few ingredients, and 30 minutes–leaving you plenty of time to get outside and enjoy the warmer weather!

What is almond meal?

For this Vegan Blondies recipe, I’ve called for all-purpose flour and almond meal to give the blondies a lighter texture, but feel free to mix up whatever flour you like. This recipe is very forgiving and you’ll get a lighter or denser blondie depending on your flour preference. I’ve also included almond meal, not to be confused with almond flour. What is the difference? Let me break it down for you:

  • Both come from almonds; however, almond flour is made from blanched white almonds (no skin) and almond meal is made from the entire almond.
  • Almond meal is more course than the flour version and has dark pieces in it from the almond skin.
  • The meal can be a great gluten-free substitute for bread crumbs.
  • You can easily make almond meal at home by just blending up whole almonds.

What is the best vegan chocolate?

Since these blondies don’t skimp on the sweeter ingredients (see: brown sugar and maple syrup YUM) it’s important to use quality dark chocolate to balance the flavors– keyword here is balance! I know most of my recipes are veggie filled, but it is so important to enjoy all types of food. For the dark chocolate chunks I used Hu Dark Chocolate, it is honestly one of my favorite brands because their chocolate is vegan, dairy free AND free from refined sugars! You can honestly taste the difference. Quality dishes start from quality ingredients, so if you are indulging in a sweet treat or mixing up a bomb salad be conscious of what ingredients you are using.
