Magic Gluten Free Blondies Recipes

GLUTEN-FREE BLONDIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. For thick blondies, use an 8x8-inch square pan. For thin blondies, use a 9x13-inch pan. Line the with parchment paper, leaving a 1-inch overhang on two opposite sides of the pan.
• Whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. In a medium bowl, stir together brown sugar and melted butter until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla. Whisk until creamy. Add gluten-free flour mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon until the batter is thick and smooth. If using chocolate chips and/or nuts, stir them in now. Spread batter into prepared pan. If using a 9x13-inch pan, it might look like there's not enough batter for the pan. Use a small spatula or the back of a spoon to evenly spread the batter into the pan.
• Bake until bars are golden brown and the top is shiny and slightly cracked. About 35 minutes for an 8-inch pan and 30 minutes for a 9x13-inch pan. Place pan on a wire rack to cool. Bars will sink in the middle as they cool. Lift bars out of the pan with the overhanging parchment paper. Place bars on a cutting board and cut into squares with a sharp knife. When cut, the bars might look underbaked. That's normal. They are very moist and buttery.
• Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to four days. Freeze cooled bars in a freezer container for up to two months. If you need to stack the bars, place a piece of parchmene paper or waxed paper between the layers.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and line a 9-inch square baking pan and set it aside.
• In a large bowl, place the flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar, and whisk to combine well. Add the brown sugar and mix, breaking up any lumps. Add the crushed cereal and all but about 2 tablespoons of the chips, and mix to combine.
• Add the butter, eggs, and vanilla, and mix, pressing the back of the spoon into the mixture until all the dry ingredients have been absorbed into the butter and beaten eggs. Continue to mix until the batter is smooth, but it will be quite thick.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared pan, and spread into an even layer using an offset spatula. Scatter the reserved chips evenly over the top of the batter and press gently to help them adhere.
• Place the pan in the center of the preheated oven and bake for about 35 minutes, or until the edges are brown, and the bars are set in the middle.
• Allow them to cool completely in the pan. To make them easier to cut, you can chill the cooled bars in the refrigerator until they're firm.
• Remove the bars from the pan and place on a cutting surface. Using a large, sharp knife, slice into squares or rectangles and serve.
