Deze Vegan Blondies are chewy, gooey vanilla bars filled with chocolate chips and crispy edges. Plus, these plant-based treats are also zonder noten and easy to make gluten-free if desired.
You know my passion for vegan desserts and vegan baking recipes. I recently shared a healthier blondies recipe, my chickpea blondies, made from canned chickpeas. Today, it’s a much more decadent version with an authentic blondie flavor and texture made from the most simple plant-based ingredients.
Classic blondies contain eggs and butter and, most of the time, milk or white chocolate chips. Therefore, it’s a vegetarian dessert but not a vegan-friendly treat. To make it fully plant-based, you need my recipe below!

Ingrediënten en vervangingen
You only need a few simple ingredients to whip up a batch of vegan blondies.
- Meel voor alle doeleinden of witte speltbloem. Voor een glutenvrije versie, gebruik mijn Omrekeningsgids voor glutenvrije producten. However, keep in mind that flour substitutions change the blondies’ texture. Gluten-free flour brings a dense and gummy texture.
- Lijnzaadei– A flax egg is made by combining ground flaxseeds and water. I recommend golden flax meal. It has a light color and is low in flavor compared to brown flax meal, which has a slightly fishy butter taste.
- Zout – Only if your vegan butter is unsalted.
- Vegan Boter – unsalted.
- Witte suiker – You can also use unrefined cane sugar or erythritol for a sugar-free alternative.
- Bruine suiker or coconut sugar for a healthy alternative.
- Bakpoeder
- Vanille-extract
- Donkere chocoladeschilfers
How To Make Vegan Blondies
It’s very simple to make these gooey, egg-free blondies in less than 30 minutes.
- First, in a small bowl, whisk the ground flaxseeds and lukewarm water.
- Set it aside for 5 to 10 minutes or until gooey like an egg.
- Pour the vegan butter into a small saucepan, bring it over medium-low heat, and melt the plant-based butter, stirring once in a while. If you like brown butter flavors in your blondies, keep cooking the butter until it changes color and gets a bit darker.
- Next, stir in the brown sugar and sugar and cook for a few minutes until the sugar melts.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining wet ingredients: flax egg and vanilla extract.
- Transfer the mixture into a mixing bowl and add the dry ingredients: all purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. The batter should be thick and elastic with a lovely golden color. Don’t overmix the batter or the blondies turns out gummy. At this point the batter is still slightly warm. As a result, if you add the chocolate chips now they will melt and disappear in the dough. That’s why you must refrigerate the blondie dough for at least 10 minutes or until cold to the touch.
- Fold the chocolate chips into the cold batter and stir to evenly combine them in the batter.
- Verwarm de oven voor op 350 ° F (180 ° C).
- Line a 8-inch x 8-inch square pan with parchment paper. Slightly oil paper with cooking spray or coconut oil.
- Pour the blondie dough into the pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake the blondies on the center rack of the oven at 350°F (180°C) until they are set on top but still gooey in the center. It takes between 15 and 20 minutes max.
- Let them cool completely on a cooling rack before slicing. As they cool, the blondies firm up, their top and edges turn crispy, and the center becomes chewy.

Allergie-uitwisselingen
Below are my suggested ingredient substitution options in case you are allergic to what is used in this recipe.
- Vegan Boter – You can use unsalted margarine with great results. However, coconut oil or vegetable oils won’t work.
- Sugar-Free – You can use sugar-free natural crystal sweeteners, like erythritol to replace the white sugar and brown erythritol to replace the brown sugar.
- Glutenvrij – Voor een glutenvrije versie, gebruik mijn recept. Omrekeningsgids voor glutenvrije producten.
- Ground Flaxseeds Swap – You can replace the flax egg with a chia egg – use the same method by replacing ground flaxseeds for ground chia seed. Or, use a store-bought egg replacer.
