Ingredients
- 120g butter
- 250g light brown soft sugar
- 200g Lifestyle Food Smooth Peanut Butter
- 90g full-fat coconut cream or yoghurt
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups Lifestyle Food Self-Raising Flour(or flour of choice)

Lifestyle Food Peanut Butter has a rich, nutty flavour and velvety texture, which makes it the ideal companion for your daily snacking and culinary adventures. Spread it generously on your morning toast, swirl it into your oatmeal, or blend it into your favourite protein-packed smoothies or baking recipes.
Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C and grease a square cake tin. Line the tin with baking parchment for easy removal.
- In a pan, melt the butter, sugar, peanut butter, coconut cream (or yoghurt), and vanilla extract over low heat, stirring until smooth. Remove from the heat once everything is melted and well combined.
- Sift together the flour, corn starch, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until the batter is thick and smooth.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared cake tin and spread it out evenly.
- Add dollops of strawberry jam on top of the batter. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the jam into the batter for a marbled effect.
- Bake the blondies in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
- Allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
