Yummy Paleo Sheet Pan Chocolate Chip Blondies are a healthy but decadent treat for any occasion, and they are gluten, dairy, and processed sugar free!
So… who’s excited for Valentine’s Day? Half of you are probably saying, “Me, me, me!!” and the other half of you are probably rolling your eyes. But hey, no matter whether you are single or have that special someone to celebrate with, I think we can ALLÂ enjoy some sweets and express a bit of love to someone else and/or to ourselves.
Paleo Sheet Pan Chocolate Chip Blondies Recipe
And what says L-O-V-E better than a chocolate treat? These sheet pan chocolate chip blondies will definitely fulfill the purpose of giving you all the happy feels without the gluten, soy, and processed sugars. They did for me!
Full disclosure: I made these chocolate chip blondies in a sheet pan for the sole reason that we are in the middle of a move staying at an Airbnb, and a sheet pan was all I had to bake anything in. But hey, I don’t regret a thing because they turned out fan-freakin-tastic!
Keeps Well in the Freezer
I already tested out popping them in the freezer and defrosting one square at a time and it still tastes amazing. Oh, and they are even better when toasted in the oven for a few minutes after they are thawed!
If you want to go full treat mode, you can even make some chocolate frosting to slather on top and make it a sheet pan cake. The blondies are soft and fluffy enough to be pass as cake, and it’ll add another layer (pun intended) of decadence!

These blondies are so good! I did substitute Ghee in place of the avocado oil and I used honey in place of the maple syrup. They are delicious and I will definitely make them again. Thank you for the recipe!
So glad you liked it, Anne! And I’m happy to know that the substitutions worked out. 🙂
I’m glad I found that the honey worked. Maple syrup is $$$ and that’s alot in this recipe. Did you use equal amount of honey? I wonder if coconut sugar could be used
Hi Patty,
Maple syrup is a bit sweeter than honey so you can try to use 1 1/2 cup honey. I wouldn’t substitute it with a dry sweetener like coconut sugar since it will change the texture. Also, this is a sheet pan recipe, which means it makes a big batch. You can try halving the recipe and making it in a 8×8 pan to cut down on cost. Hope this helps!
I call this style lazy man style, and they’re one of my favorites!! Something about just plopping it all in one pan and being done…these look terrific!
I just bought a giant bottle of avocado oil at Costco..now I know what to use it for haha. Love that you used a baking sheet for this, I need to do that more often!
A-MAZ-ING! Those look truly decadent!
What a great recipe. I wonder if I can sub another flour mixture.. I don’t have tapioca..
I have all the other ingredients.. Maybe I’ll just try it.. Sure looks decadent!!!
Will let you know how it goes!
