Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking pan and set it aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup creamy, all‑natural peanut butter, 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil (if solid, gently warm until liquid), 1/3 cup maple syrup, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract; stir until smooth and uniform.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined and no large streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.
  5. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Remove the pan from the oven and let the blondies cool in the pan on a wire rack until set and cooled to room temperature. Once cooled, cut into 12 squares and serve.
