Flourless Banana Blondies | running with spoons

You gained’t uncover any flour, butter, or oil in these ridiculously mushy and tender flourless banana blondies!

Whats up there, jellos!

I absolutely didn’t point out to depart you guys for a variety of days there, however I absolutely didn’t point out to get hit with some hardcore creator’s block accompanied by a bunch of #IFailAtLife moments every. I’ve mad respect for individuals who can reliably publish on schedule, rain or shine, however I’m positively not a kind of of us. I’m extra the “take it simple and veg on the sofa with an infinite bowl of popcorn” sort; and whereas it’d look like laziness, I’ve realized  that it’s higher for me to take a step as soon as extra all by means of these circumstances (if I can) pretty than attempt to vitality by the use of them, or else I’ll lastly find yourself contained in the nook of my closet having a snot-filled breakdown at 2am.

True story.

Apart from! My creator’s block at all times disappears as randomly because of it seems… which is the story I’m sticking to due to I don’t need to admit that it may need one factor to do with the truth that I’m as soon as extra on the bean.

Nope! These flourless banana blondies appropriate correct proper right here? 100% ingenious genius that’s by no means caffeine-induced 😜

We’re going to title them caffeine-impressedalthough, since the concept behind them was to have one issue to munch on whereas I sipped my espresso.

And every time I walked into the kitchen.

And whereas I used to be scripting this put up.

And… you get the concept.

So let’s take a higher take a look at what we’re munching on, precisely…

To start with, we’ve bought bananas – two good and spotty ones. These guys lend to flavour and fluffiness, BUT! provided that you just fold them in by hand. When you toss them contained in the blender with the remainder of the climate, you’ll wind up with a flat, dense, rubbery brick of banana-ness that tastes good however feels each sort of mistaken.

Why? On account of bananas launch a complete lot of moisture whereas they’re being pulverized, which is comprehensible however not so fascinating… notably in a flourless recipe like this one the place the dry parts are fairly minimal. And by minimal I point out a mere 1/2 cup of oats and 4 tbsp of coconut flour in your full batch… which is sort of loopy contemplating the fluffiness problem…

Subsequent up we’ve bought Greek yogurt. I like baking with this stuff due to it presents a tonne of moisture and actually reduces (and even eliminates) the necessity for any added oil or butter. I don’t typically calculate the dietary data for my recipes, however I used to be notably on this one, and regarded one in every of these flourless banana blondies comes out to solely 128 vitality (based completely on 12 servings)… which is loopy for a method tasty they’re!

I went with chocolate chips and walnuts for the add-ins, however you most likely can go together with no matter your coronary coronary coronary heart wants… so long as it’s not updated fruit. Nuts, seeds, chocolate, and dried fruit is okay, however the water content material materials supplies in updated fruit is significantly too excessive, and it could most certainly muck up the feel of the completed product.

And likewise you positively don’t need to do this, due to they’re already sort of fantastic. Merely sayin’.
