They’ve got a hint of white chocolate flavor, yet they’re dairy free and vegan!
They’re kinda like my Matcha Sugar Cookies, but in bar form. Yeah, I’ll take it. Actually, I’ll take two 😏

If you like matcha, these Healthy Matcha Green Tea Blondies were made for you. They’re so dense and delicious, you may just die. And if you don’t, that means you’re allowed a second helping 😉
Another blondie?
Yes.
The answer is always YES 😎
How about a THIRD blondie? I’m totally sure that’s a yes in this book. These matcha blondies look absolutely fantastic, and I can’t believe they’re super healthy!
MUST try matcha!! The answer is ALWAYS yes to another blondie! 😉
Hi Jessica,
Can you substitute the raw cacao butter for more coconut oil or other fat substitute? Would applesauce work?
I haven’t tried replacing the cacao butter here, but I’m sure more coconut oil would work! Applesauce might make the blondies a little gummy or cakey.
Hello Jessica,
Is it possible to substitute the quinoa/sorghum flour for something else? What effects do these ingredients have on the overall product?
The quinoa flour can be replaced with brown rice flour. I definitely wouldn’t recommend using 100% oat flour in this recipe because oat flour can turn things a little gummy and chewy.
