Pistachio Swirl White Chocolate Blondies

A blondie resembles a brownie in texture but boasts a rich and buttery flavour with a golden, blond colour. It's a close cousin to the classic chocolate brownie, but without cocoa, resulting in a caramel-like taste. This blondie's texture is dense and chewy, with a slightly crispy exterior and a moist, fudgy center. Rich white chocolate and swirls of pistachio crema take this treat over the top. So, sink your teeth into a blondie and savour the blissful blend of sweetness and chewy goodness that this delectable dessert has to offer.

I absolutely love this recipe! I have made it many times and the taste is always amazing 🤩
I do have a question though - when I make it, the pistachio swirl ends up being an additional layer on top of the batter with the swirl-batter ratio being approx. 1:2. I have tried measuring the pistachio in both grams and 1/2 cup to the same result. Am I doing something wrong? What would be the correct ratio?
This is my first comment, so I also want to add that I absolutely love your recipes and the app! 💛

Heyy Toni, oh, this makes me so happy to read! Firstly, thank you for making it so often and for supporting the app. It means a lot to have you here ☺️

Thanks for flagging this! To be sure, I double-checked the numbers and spotted that we originally listed ½ cup of raw pistachios as 70 grams, but after rechecking, it should indeed be 60 grams, so I’ve updated that.

Regarding the pistachio layer, it’s meant to be quite thick and generous. We didn’t measure an exact ratio between the pistachio crema and the blondie batter, but it is quite a bit, so I'm sure you've done it correctly. To avoid the crema just sitting on top, try dipping the knife a little deeper and making a few figure-eight motions to pull some batter up through the crema as you swirl. This should help them bleed into each other more. Hope that helps, and thanks again for your lovely feedback! 💛

Soooo yummy, I would just use half the amount of sugar, because the chocolate chunks and the pistachio creme is already sweet enough for my taste buds :)

I made these tonight and they were absolutely delicious!! 🥰

The only thing I switched up was using dark chocolate, because I couldn’t find vegan white chocolate anywhere. Also, I made blondie “muffins” and only let them bake at 180 degrees for 13 minutes - so, so good!!

There is not much ‘swirling’ the pistachio crema as the batter is really thick en quite dry.. I already added an extra splash of milk. It’s in the oven right now, smells great. Lets see how it turn out 😊

Heyy Sarah, thanks for sharing! The batter for this recipe is meant to be on the thicker side, but you should still be able to swirl the pistachio crema through the top. In case it's cold/winter on your end, it's possible the batter is firming up, which can make it harder to work with. Adding a small splash of milk is a lovely idea!

It sounds like it’s already smelling great, so we're hopeful it’ll turn out delicious 😊 Let us know how it is once it’s baked ✨

Delicious 🤤 I love the nutty flavor the chickpea flour adds to the blondies.


Sophia - Jan. 1, 2026, 3:49 p.m.

Love this recipe! Are there any substitutes for chickpea flour though? 🙂

Hey Sophia! You can likely sub the chickpea flour with an equal amount of all-purpose flour. You could also try oat flour or almond flour, though the texture may turn out a bit different. We haven’t tested these swaps ourselves, so we can’t say for sure how the results will compare, but they should work okay. If you try any of them, let us know how it goes!
