Suggested Substitutions

How to Make Healthy Peanut Butter Greek Yogurt Banana Caramel Blondie Squares

PIN IT

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking dish with parchment paper.
2. Mash bananas in a large bowl until smooth.
3. Add wet ingredients: Stir in peanut butter, Greek yogurt, honey/maple syrup, egg, and vanilla. Mix until creamy.
4. Add dry ingredients: Fold in oat flour and baking powder until just combined. Don’t overmix!
5. Spread into pan: Pour batter evenly into prepared baking dish.
6. Swirl caramel: Drizzle caramel sauce on top, then use a toothpick to create pretty swirls.
7. Bake for 22–25 minutes, or until edges are golden and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
8. Cool & slice: Let cool before cutting into squares.

The smell while baking? Heavenly. The hardest part is waiting for them to cool!

What to Serve with Blondie Squares

• A cold glass of milk (classic!)

Tips for Making It Perfect

• Want them extra gooey? Add a tablespoon more caramel before baking.

Storage Instructions

• Counter: Store in airtight container for 2 days.
• Fridge: Keeps well up to 5 days.
• Freezer: Freeze squares individually wrapped for up to 2 months.

Perfect for back-to-school, post-workout fuel, or sweet cravings at night.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these vegan?
Yes! Use flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed + 3 tbsp water) and dairy-free yogurt.

Can I use regular flour instead of oat flour?
Yes, but texture will be slightly denser. Oat flour keeps it light.

How do I make them sweeter?
Add chocolate chips or an extra tablespoon of honey.

Do I need to refrigerate them?
They’re fine at room temp for 2 days, but refrigeration keeps them fresh longer.
