Hey Guys! Ana here, you probably already met me with the peanut butter cup chocolate bark recipe, today I’m coming back to share with you a pink ombre blondie recipe perfect for Valentine’s Day.
But we are not making the traditional blondie. Nope, today we are going to be making ombre blondies — and not just any ombre blondies (’cause that would probably be too normal) — we are talking about pink ombre blondies!! If that isn’t the cutest little idea for Valentine’s Day, then I don’t know what is.
Best of all, this recipe is super easy to follow, so even if you are a complete baking disaster you can rest assured your pink ombre blondies are going to come out super delicious. You also don’t need a ton of tools or a ton of ingredients, making it small kitchen approved, (Please tell me that I’m not the only one with a kitchen that has the size of a tiny closet!)
I also love the fact that you can make them match your dietary needs, so if you follow a gluten-free lifestyle just swap the flour for a cup for cup gluten free baking mix. The same goes if you are vegan, you just need to change the butter for oil and substitute the egg for a flax seed egg. I’ve made it in all the ways (traditional, gluten free, and even vegan) and all of them came out perfectly and delicious.
Pink Ombre Blondie Recipe
Whip up these according to the recipe below, and slice them to bring to your Galentine’s party or share with your special someone! Hint: They look beautiful wrapped in a cellophane bag! 🙂
- 1 stick butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg (or a flax seed egg)
- 1 cup flour

- In a bowl cream the butter and sugar.

- Mix well and with the help of a spatula pour the batter in the cake pan. It should look like a striped flag.
