Rich and full of that vanilla-caramel flavor, these Chocolate Chip Sweet Potato Blondies are secretly healthy and Paleo friendly too! Made in just a blender, they’re also the easiest, no-fail blondies out there!

So I bought these sweet potatoes about 3 months ago, and have been using them in plastic zipper bags as dumbbells as part of my home gym setup. Quarantine life hack here!

But now I’ve moved to a new apartment and my new roommate has some real dumbbells I can use.

And thankfully since sweet potatoes just last for so long, I can finally get through all those SP recipes I’ve had on my list for ages now!

Why blondies? Because everyone’s doing brownies of some sort, and I kinda wanted to do something else for a change.

Used almond butter and almond flour a healthier version with all the flavor;

Result? The best vanilla-flavored chocolate caramel blondies you can have!

Easy and healthy chocolate chip blondies made with almond butter for the caramel flavor, and without any brown sugar or butter are the best you can get!

Ingredients for these Paleo Chocolate Chip Blondies:

Sweet Potato – Kinda obvious I guess, but mashed sweet potatoes form the core of these blender blondies! Check the recipe notes on how to bake them.
Creamy Almond Butter – This gives the blondies that classic caramel flavor while still keeping them healthy. It also serves as the fat source here in place of butter.
Peanut Butter (non Paleo), Cashew Butter, Tahini or any nut or seed butter would work too.
Pumpkin Puree – To make these kinda like Thanksgiving/Fall blondies – and also reduce some of the fat – I subbed part of the almond butter in the original recipe for pumpkin puree.
Feel free to bring it back in, or use an alternative like mashed banana or applesauce.
Vanilla Extract – Just adds that vanilla-ey richness you expect from a blondie!
Egg – You might be able to get away without it, but I added one for the rise, and to make them a bit like sweet potato blondie cake.

These healthier and fudgy paleo sweet potato blondies are made with no flour, no sugar, no dairy, and can be easily made Vegan too!

Almond Flour – Use super fine almond flour – or meal – here to make it Paleo-friendly and Gluten-free as well.
If you don’t have any, regular all-purpose would be fine.
1:1 Sugar Substitute – To make them actually healthy and sugar-free blondies, I used a sugar substitute from Lakanto, but an equal amount or regular/brown sugar (or coconut sugar for an even richer flavor) will do.
Cinnamon – A little spice to spice things up!
Baking Powder – Need that leavening there. If you don’t have baking powder, use ⅓ of the amount of baking soda instead.
Stevia-Sweetened Chocolate Chips – These are to fold into the batter (and some for the top) coz vanilla/caramel + chocolate is just so good!
I used dark chocolate from Lily’s.

Make these easy gluten-free sweet potato blondie bars that taste like a blondie cake rich in vanilla caramel flavor.

How to make Fudgy Sweet Potato Blondies in a Blender?

Well all you need to do is blend, add in the chocolate chips, and bake!

Blend the mashed sweet potato, almond butter, pumpkin, egg and vanilla in a blender
Add in the almond flour, sugar, cinnamon and baking powder and blend again
Fold in about ¾ of the chocolate chips
Pour the mix into an 8×8” parchment-lined pan
Top with the remaining chocolate chips
Bake at 350°F for exactly 23 minutes!

Use a tester to check if it’s done, but that’s how long mine took.

Don’t forget to let them cool a little before you indulge.

How to serve these Easy Chocolate Chip Blondies?

So many possibilities here, but here’s my favorites:

Paired with some cool vanilla ice cream. Be healthy and make your own ice cream with Protein Powder or Frozen Bananas.

A thick protein shake – this Iced Vanilla Latte flavor – was my #2 choice.

There’s also a yogurt bowl option!

Or just have them warm straight out of the pan!

Can you store these Blondies?

Of course! But make sure you let them cool first

Room Temperature: In an airtight container for 2-3 days.

Fridge: About a week in an airtight container.

Freezer: For 2-3 months individually wrapped in plastic wrap (like single blondie bars) and placed in zipper bags.

What makes Chocolate Chip Sweet Potato Blondies Healthy?

These fudgy blondies are made with no butter and no oil and also dairy free because there’s no milk either.

The blondies are made with almond butter and pumpkin puree for the fat source!

Switch the egg for a flax egg or just do no egg and turn this Vegan.

These are without brown sugar, so use a sugar-free sugar substitute and stevia-sweetened chocolate chips, and these will be naturally-sweetened, no added sugar, blondies.

The best part though? They’re gluten-free blender blondies made using almond flour, making them Paleo-friendly and Whole30 approved too!

Clearly healthy!
