The blondie recipe I devised is studded with rich dark chocolate, bright red goji berries and fragrant desiccated coconut. To add to the richness of the cake, I used a small amount of coconut flour, which is a really divine gluten-free flour option. Coconut flour is made from pounding dried coconut meat and is an excellent substitute from wheat flour because while it is gluten free, it is high in fibre and low in carbohydrate. It is ideal to use as a maximum of 25% of the recipe's flour content.
I made this recipe to be low-in-fat, dairy-free, gluten-free and sugar-free! Don't get nervous, I promise they taste really good! If you don't believe me, try them for yourself....
