Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh! Can we talk about the fricking Maple Pecan Sticky Blondies?!?!?!
I only had 1/2 as much of the pecan topping as the recipe called for – the best part – and they were delicious. When I make them again with the full amount I’m pretty sure my head is going to explode. They are chewy, and almost spongy, the topping is the world’s best mix of sweet and salty and the molasses adds a fabulous layer of complexity. I had two.
And the minute I woke up this morning, before brushing my teeth, and even before I peed, I ate another one! Buy Eat, Drink, and Be Vegan. Do it NOW. Make these blondies. If you are worried about the “strange” ingredients don’t be. I subbed out the ‘regular’ stuff for half of the ingredients in the recipe and it worked out fine.
Gah! I’m still kind of not over it, but I can’t talk about blondies all day, you want to hear about breakfast.
Last night I mixed up 1/3 cup oats, 1/3 cup plain skim soy milk, 1/4 cup soy vanilla yogurt, and 1T maple syrup. I am not a soy yogurt fan but it was leftover from the blondies.
This morning I topped the bowl of with a sliced banana and a spoonful of pb.
Pretty tasty.
I have class this afternoon and leftovers are on the dinner agenda, overall it looks like a low-key day. By the way – I’ve decided NOT to run before my race. I am not going to be able to increase my fitness in 10days, but I can give my leg a chance to rest up and heal.
Blondies or brownies, which are your favorite? To me brownies = ick, blondies = yum. I will say though, that ALL of my favorite blondies have been vegan.

those blondies sound (and look) amazing! I think I need this cookbook 🙂
I love good brownies AND blondies.
Those blondies looked REALLY amazing – I wish I´d know how to cook! Haha 😉
And your overnight yoatgurt looked awesome, too…
Bananas+PB= LOVE!
😉
Have a great day!

I like both! I have to say those look incredible! I almost hate to ask but do you know the nutritional values on them? Just wondering what the calories are!
I think it’s wise to rest your leg. Why risk making it any worse?
The book doesn’t include calorie counts and Google didn’t turn up any info. They are definitely NOT low-calorie. However, they absolutely fall under the “worth it” category.
Thanks! I’ll go with the “they’re vegan so they must be good for me” theory!
Those blondies look delicious! The middle topping part looks so gooey and good 🙂 I’ve actually never had blondies before I have to try a recipe! I love overnight oats especially with the peanut butter!
Have a nice day!

I love to make brownies with things in them. That can be cookie dough, mini candy bars, hershey’s kisses, fudge chunks–basically the more ridiculously decadent the better 😉 Blondies are nice, too. I gotta say that cookie bars are my favorite of the square “pan desserts” as my mom calls them. Why are cookie bars so much better than plain cookies?
It must be because they get ooey gooey in the middle, because I agree they are far better!
