Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural peanut butter (or almond butter)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat or low-fat)
  • 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Additional Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional, for topping)
  • 1/4 cup milk (any kind, or use a non-dairy alternative)


Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix everything together until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together the rolled oats, baking soda, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agent and seasoning.
  4. Combine Wet & Dry Mixtures: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients bowl and mix thoroughly until fully incorporated. If the batter is too thick, gradually add milk a little at a time to loosen it until you reach a spreadable consistency.
  5. Transfer Batter to Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly to ensure uniform baking.
  6. Add Chocolate Chips (Optional): Sprinkle chocolate chips evenly on top of the batter if you want extra sweetness and texture.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 18–22 minutes. Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean when the blondies are ready.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the blondies from the oven and allow them to cool completely before cutting into 12 squares. Enjoy as a healthy, protein-rich breakfast or snack.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond butter or another nut butter for peanut butter if preferred.
  • The recipe can be made dairy-free by using non-dairy yogurt and milk alternatives.
  • Optional chocolate chips add sweetness but can be omitted for a healthier version.
  • Ensure the blondies cool completely before cutting to maintain their shape.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
