Vegan Maple Walnut Blondies

Blondies are so underrated! If you’re new to them, they’re basically brownies…but without the brown color and chocolate flavor. Here I bring you my favorite ooey-gooey vegan maple walnut blondies! They’re a really easy treat to make with simple ingredients. Head to the kitchen to start baking and they’ll be ready in just 35 minutes.

I love the way the maple, walnuts, and cinnamon compliment each other. It’s the perfect fall or winter treat, or really the perfect treat for any time of the year. 

If you love brownies and you haven’t had blondies before, then you’re in for a serious treat. You definitely need to try out these vegan maple walnut blondies. There’s nothing complicated about this recipe and all you need is basic pantry staple ingredients that you most likely already have. If you don’t have coconut sugar, you can switch out the coconut sugar for brown sugar. I like to use organic brown sugar when I bake.

If you want, you can mix fun add-ins into the batter to make different varieties of vegan blondies—like chocolate chip blondies, peanut butter blondies, pumpkin blondies, and much more!

Another fun idea? Take half of the batter and whisk in cocoa powder and then swirl them together into the pan to make a brownie/blondie creation for the best of both worlds!

I love easy baking recipes like this that are versatile and can be switched around and customized easily to make your own creations. In fact, I learned most of my vegan baking skills by taking my mom and grandma’s traditional baking recipes and switching some ingredients around to veganize them. Baking is so fun when you start to experiment! 

I hope you give these vegan blondies a try—if you do, we’d love to see photos! You can find World of Vegan on Instagram and Twitter.
