Vegan Tahini Oat Flour Blondies (gluten free)
If you had to choose, would you go with blondies or brownies? I love both, but I definitely gravitate towards chocolate chip blondies! Making healthy and vegan blondies is no small task. These vegan tahini oat flour blondies (gluten free) are probably my favorite blondie recipe ever!
They're gooey and have an amazing texture despite being made with oat flour. Sometimes oat flour recipes come out crumbly, but the combination of tahini and apple sauce give these blondies the best texture. The combination of maple syrup and coconut sugar make this recipe refined sugar free, and also contribute to the gooey texture. This recipe is also made in one bowl, so it's super easy! All together you can have a dessert in less than 30 minutes, and with minimal cleanup.

The tahini flavor is subtle and the texture is incredible! These Blondies stay dense, moist, chewy, even well after they've cooled and set. Will make this again and again!

This recipe turned out perfect! I actually halved the recipe and replaced the applesauce with mashed bananas. I’m trying to avoid nut butter during this time as much as possible so the tahini replacement was exactly what I was looking for ?
Thank you so much for the awesome and easy recipe. Looking forward to trying more of your recipes ??

I made these with brown sugar instead of coconut sugar (I didn't have any at home) and I blended 2 cups of rolled oats to get the 1 1/2 cups of oat flour. I also used natural peanut butter and these turned out AMAZING!! She really wasn't kidding when she said these are the best blondies ever (vegan or not vegan)! Thanks for the recipe ❤️
