FAQ
Can I use regular eggs instead of vegan eggs?
Yes, substitute 2 regular eggs for the vegan egg replacer. The texture will be similar but the blondies won't be vegan.
What if I don't have almond flour?
You can substitute with oat flour or all-purpose flour in equal amounts, though the texture will be slightly different.
How long do these keep?
Store covered at room temperature for up to 5 days, or refrigerate for up to 1 week for longer storage.
