In the summer, I try to get as many berries and peaches in as I can. Why are summer fruits the absolute best? And why is summer fruit season so short? Okay, why is summer so short?! Anyway, I love an easy, simple, delicious dessert and if you do too, then this recipe is for you!
These blondies are, of course, gluten-free. I’ve steered away from 100% grain free these days and find adding at least some 1:1 gluten free flour helps the bake. I do use a lot of tiger nut flour, though, as it lends a natural sweetness and earthiness to recipes. If you can’t get your hands on tiger nut flour, almond flour should sub okay.
Mixed Berry Blondies
Ingredients:
-1 cup Tigernut (or almond) flour
-1/2 cup Cassava flour (or more 1:1 gluten free flour)
-1/4 cup 1:1 gluten free flour (I used Bob’s Red Mill)
-1 tsp. baking powder (3/4 if at altitude)
-1/8 tsp. salt
-1 egg
-1/4 cup oil of choice
-1/3 cup maple syrup
-1 tsp. vanilla extract
-1 cup of mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
Preheat your oven to 350F.
Sift all the dry ingredients together in a small bowl.
Beat all of the wet ingredients, except berries, together in a larger bowl.
Mix wet into dry until just combined.
Gently fold in the berries.
Spread mixture in a 9×9 in. parchment lined baking dish.
Bake for 30-35 min until just golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool before cutting then enjoy before summer ends 😊
