Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Blondies image

I converted these blondies to be gluten-free so that my family could enjoy a comforting dessert. We were really craving brownies one night, and this cakelike treat hit the spot! They're an enticing spin on gluten-free peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. -Becky Klope, Loudonville, New York

These blondies were a bit dry, but I think that's because I overbaked them. I'll try them again and bake them for less time.

These blondies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. They're still very good and I would definitely make them again.

These blondies were easy to make and turned out great! I used almond butter instead of peanut butter and they were still delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but these blondies were surprisingly delicious. The peanut butter flavor is subtle and not overpowering.

These blondies were a hit with my family! They're chewy and gooey, and the peanut butter flavor is perfect. I'll definitely be making these again.
