Healthy Peanut Butter & Jelly Blondies

SERVING SIZE: 1 blondie

YIELDS: 16 servings

– 75g light butter
– 75g vanilla whey
– 130g all-purpose flour
– 1 egg
– 1 mashed banana

*Note: When baking with protein powder, we recommend staying away from pure isolate powder because it can create a cardboard texture. Whey/Casein blends usually work best for baking — our favorite is the Devotion Nutrition brand. If you are interested in trying Devotion Nutrition, use “AVATAR” at checkout and save 10%.

Using another brand of protein powder may result in slightly different macros. Click here to get expert tips on baking with other types of protein powder in our free online guide.

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a mixing bowl, melt butter in microwave until softened.
3. Add all other ingredients except for strawberry jam and mix well until cake batter consistency is reached. You may need to add a little bit of water to reach the cake batter consistency.
   
4. Gently fold jam into cake batter (do not over mix).
   
5. Pour into greased 9×9 inch square pan.
   
6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until you can stick a toothpick in and it comes out clean; let cool, then slice into 16 squares. Feel free to drizzle with peanut butter and enjoy!
