You will love these Healthy Gluten-Free No Bake Blondies. This gluten-free snack does not need baking and is made with only six healthy ingredients. You will need one large apple, coconut flour, honey or maple syrup, a little melted coconut oil, only 1/4 cup nut butter of choice and vanilla or a pinch of cinnamon. The no bake blondies are sooo delicious!
The grain-free blondie recipe is super easy to whip up. All you will need is one bowl, spatula and a loaf pan lined with parchment paper. The total prep time is only five minutes. Then, this healthy snack is chilled until firm. This takes about two hours, or overnight is best. Voila…done!
Just imagine a healthy gluten-free snack like these no bake blondies that everyone will love. Yes, the kids love them too, and a great way to get them to eat something healthy. These gluten-free no bake blondies are grain-free, refined sugar-free, dairy-free and packed with plenty of protein, fiber and vitamin C. This healthy snack recipe is raw, keeping the blondies healthy as could be.
How healthy is this gluten-free no bake blondies recipe?
Let’s examine the ingredients — a healthy organic apple with the skin on – vitamins, fiber and antioxidants.
Coconut flour is made from dried coconut meat. This gluten-free flour, depending on which brand you buy, is considered low carbohydrate food. It is naturally gluten-free and is high in fiber, up to 45 g per 100 grams of coconut flour. Coconut flour is regarded as having a lower glycemic index than other flours. This means it causes less of a spike in blood sugar levels. An excellent flour to use in healthy snack recipes, especially for kids
Honey is another miracle food. If you are using high-quality honey, it is rich in antioxidants, and it is considered more nutritious than any sugar. If you follow a vegan diet, you can substitute pure maple syrup for the honey…another healthier option to sugar.
I also added almond butter to this healthy gluten-free snack. You can use any nut butter that you prefer, but I find almond butter goes exceptionally well with apples. Almond butter is rich in protein, fiber, magnesium and calcium. Just make sure you are using unsweetened and preferably unsalted nut butter.
I have also added a bit of coconut oil. Coconut oil helps your body burn fat and provides quick energy to your body and brain, making coconut oil excellent addition to healthy snacks. My favourite coconut oil to use is the unscented organic coconut oil. By using unscented coconut oil, the blondies aren’t overpowered with coconut flavour.
For flavour, I added pure vanilla extract. However, you can also use gluten-free ground cinnamon. Both work well in this gluten-free no bake blondie recipe.
What do I love about these healthy blondies?
Firstly, you don’t have to bake them, making this a super easy snack recipe… a big plus in my book. The gluten-free blondies are healthy, and both kids and adults love them. They make for a great gluten-free snack on the go. The blondies are also considered as a healthy snack for kids, making them excellent for lunch boxes. And 🙂 they are super duper delicious!
