FAQs

1. Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?

Coconut flour absorbs more liquid, so it’s not a 1:1 substitute. If using, adjust liquid and egg content accordingly.

2. What’s the best sweetener for keto blondies?

Erythritol, monk fruit, or allulose are great options. Choose one that tastes best to you.

3. How do I make blondies extra chewy?

Use allulose as your sweetener, as it helps retain moisture and prevents a grainy texture.

4. Can I make these blondies dairy-free?

Yes, replace the butter with coconut oil or a dairy-free butter alternative.

5. Are these blondies gluten-free?

Yes, the recipe is naturally gluten-free since it uses almond flour.

6. How do I prevent the blondies from overbaking?

Check them at the 20-minute mark and remove them when the edges are golden and the center is just set.

7. Can I add protein powder?

Yes, replace a small portion of the almond flour with unsweetened protein powder.

8. What pan size works best?

An 8×8-inch pan is ideal for thicker blondies. Use a larger pan for thinner bars.

9. How do I make blondies more cake-like?

Add an extra egg or increase the baking powder slightly for a lighter texture.

10. Can I double the recipe?

Yes, double the ingredients and bake in a 9×13-inch pan. Adjust baking time as needed.

Keto Blondies are a decadent yet low-carb dessert that’s easy to make and customizable to your taste. With their chewy texture and buttery flavor, they’re a crowd-pleasing treat for anyone watching their carbs. Bake a batch today and enjoy a guilt-free indulgence!
