Raspberry & White Chocolate Blondies

A classic pairing of flavours!

Raspberry and white chocolate is one of my favourite flavour combinations for a dessert and with my new found love of blondies it was on my list of flavours to try asap!

Absolutely love these, not too sweet, perfect combination of the tart raspberry and sweet chocolate.

Coconut sugar also adds such a great richness, I love baking with it.

Enjoy these little bites of deliciousness!

How do we do it?

---

Delicious fruity, chocolatey treats! I used a 17cm x 28cm brownie tin/dish for this recipe.

Recipe - Makes around 16 slices

• 2 Flax Eggs (2 Tbsp ground Flax seed + 6 Tbsp Water)

• 1 1/2 Cups Coconut Sugar

• 2 Tbsp Vanilla Paste or 1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract

• 1 Cup Vegan Butter (melted)

• 370g Plain Flour

• 1 tsp Baking Powder

• 1/2 tsp Salt

• 1 Cup Raspberries

• 200g Vegan White Chocolate

Method

1. Preheat oven to 180°C and prepare your brownie tin/ oven proof dish by lining it with baking paper.

2. Prepare flax egg by mixing milled flax seed with water and let it stand for 5 minutes or so.

3. In a bowl add sugar, flour, vanilla paste/essence, butter, baking powder and salt. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

4. Add in the flax egg and stir well to combine.

5. Next add in white chocolate and your raspberries. Either use white chocolate chips or break up a bar of white chocolate. Save some chunks to sit on top and some to melt and drizzle after baking.

6. Place your blondie mix in your prepared dish and spread evenly, you can place some more chocolate chip/chunks in the top of the mixture before then placing it in the oven for around 25minutes. Keep checking your blondies by inserting a knife in the centre. Once the knife comes out clean or with just a few crumbs the blondies are ready!

7. Remove blondies from the oven and let them cool.

8. Once they have cooled it's time to prepare your chocolate to drizzle on top. Melt the white chocolate, you can do this in the microwave or bain-marie..

9. Once the chocolate is ready, drizzle over the top of your blondies and then place the blondies in the fridge until the chocolate is set.

10. Remove from the fridge and cut into squares.

11. Store in an airtight container and enjoy! Also suitable for freezing.

Tips

You can find vegan white chocolate in the supermarket, usually in the free from section. Aldi have started doing a great range of vegan chocolate for £1.50 for a large bar.

I used frozen raspberries for this recipe but fresh would also be fine to use.

The blondies freeze and defrost well so they are great to make in a big batch!

I get loads of my ingredients from Buy Wholefoods Online check them out as they have such a range of products at great prices.
