The keto blondies you could fall in love with
Besides the ratio between dry and wet ingredients, I think it is important to find just the right doneness, just like with keto brownies and keto gooey cake. Since every oven tends to function a bit differently, no matter what the numbers say, I recommend baking for 20 minutes the first time. Later,
if you like the flavor of these keto blondies as much as we do, and want to make another batch, decide whether you want juicier or dryer outcome the next time. Shorten or lengthen the baking time accordingly.
The original version: Many of our users like the original recipe for keto blondies a lot. I now call it the PRIMAL KETO BLONDIES recipe. This version of blondies should have a little raise and cakey structure when baked. Do note that they are quite buttery.

Put cacao butter into a microwave-safe bowl. Let it melt in a microwave for a minute and a half. Stir the butter until there are no lumps left. If needed, microwave for another minute or so. Set aside to cool. When cooled, stir in the butter OR coconut oil.

Optional: You can add 2 tablespoons of ground walnuts (or any type of nuts) or chia seeds (suggestion: add a tsp. of lemon zest as well). Either add them to the chopped chocolate or use solo. Combine using a spatula.
Put the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.

Put in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. After this time, the toothpick will be clean when inserted into the center, but the blondies will remain somewhat juicy in the middle. Don’t over-bake.
When done baking, take the whole batch out of the pan together with the parchment paper and let it cool down. When cooled, cut into 20 more or less equal size blondies.
