Gluten Free Blondies are one of those desserts that nobody guesses are actually gluten free. They turn out soft, chewy, buttery, and packed with chocolate chips in every bite. I honestly love recipes like this because they feel simple and familiar without tasting like a “special diet” dessert at all.

These blondies are great when you need something easy for a party, bake sale, family gathering, or just a random weeknight dessert craving. Everything comes together in one bowl, the ingredients are easy to find, and the bars slice really nicely once cooled. They also travel well, which makes them perfect for sharing.

What makes these blondies especially good is the texture. The brown sugar keeps them chewy, the almond flour adds softness, and the mix of white and semi-sweet chocolate chips keeps every bite interesting. Even people who normally do not care about gluten-free desserts end up going back for seconds.

What You Will Need for these Gluten Free Blondies

A large mixing bowl makes it easy to combine everything in one place.

A metal 9×13 baking pan works best for even baking.

Parchment paper or cooking spray helps keep the blondies from sticking.

Ingredients

• ½ cup butter, softened
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 cup gluten-free 1:1 baking flour
• ½ cup almond flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• ½ cup chopped pecans (optional)

How to Make Gluten-Free Blondies

Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9×13 baking pan.

In a large bowl, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined.

Add the gluten-free flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until no dry streaks remain.

Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, white chocolate chips, and pecans if using.

Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the top is lightly golden and the center is set.

Allow the blondies to cool before slicing into squares.

Tips

Do not overmix the batter once the flour is added or the blondies can turn dense.

A metal pan gives the best texture and more even baking than glass.

For extra flavor, try browning the butter first and letting it cool before mixing.

Let the blondies cool fully before cutting for cleaner slices.

Storage

Store the blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 to 5 days.

They also freeze really well for up to 3 months. Just thaw at room temperature before serving.
