Pin It!

These gluten free paleo chocolate chip pumpkin blondies are a healthier alternative to traditional pumpkin baked goods. Refined sugar free and delicious!

Yep. It happened. You can’t get through the fall season without making pumpkin baked goods. You just can’t.

Plus I’ve been stress eating my LIFE away lately. Ugh, so much mindlessness and munching. This goes to show you guys, even healthy living/eating/food/fitness bloggers are human and fall off the wagon. It happens to the best of us.

And oddly enough, it’s always after lunch. Like, I’m full, satisfied, all that jazz, but once the kids go down for a nap it’s like the stress of the morning and what I need to do in the afternoon rears its ugly head and everything in the kitchen is like “BINGE ON ME NOOOOOW!”

Paleo pumpkin blondies! A perfect healthier treat for pumpkin season! Gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free

Stress eating is totally a new thing for me. I should get all downward dog and meditate, but instead I’m face first in a bag of plantain chips, or chocolate chips, or banana chips, or just CHIPS. Lots of new changes in our life – crazy days, decisions, stress. I fully intend to start getting a hold of the stress eating and get back to mindful nutrition, but in the meantime, I’m just going to indulge in these paleo chocolate chip pumpkin blondies, mmmmmk?

I mean, at least I’m making baked goods that are naturally sweetened, gluten free, dairy free, and a bajillion times better than traditional baked goods, right? #silverlining

In all seriousness, sometimes we go through seasons of life when things aren’t perfect. Or perfectly planned out. Or perfectly healthy. And that’s ok.

These pumpkin blondies are a perfect paleo way to get your sweet fix this season! Naturally sweetened, gluten free, dairy free

Fall is always a challenging time to stay squeaky clean when it comes to putting SHTUFF in our mouths. Baked goods man, baked goods are so…good. So if I need to give myself a little grace and enjoy these paleo chocolate chip pumpkin blondies, then so be it. THEY ARE DELICIOUS. And crazy easy.

Healthy paleo pumpkin blondies with chocolate chips

I loved how simple it was to combine a few simple ingredients, pour into a pan, intoxicate the house with the fragrant smell of spiced pumpkin, then dive face first into a perfectly cut, perfectly pumpkin’d, sprinkled-in-chocolate blondie bar. They are so quintessentially fall.

I used this 9×13 pan from Nordic Ware and lemme tell ya, I love this thing. It’s perfect for bars or brownies and comes with a nifty top that pops right on, making it easy to bring these bars to any party. You can get the pan HERE. Or pour the mixture into an 8×8 baking pan for slightly thicker bars.

    These look so good! I used to not being into pumpkin at all, but lately when I’m out, they keep catching my eye, so nice to see a healthy recipe instead of ones so high in sugar and artificial ingredients
