Recipe Ingredients

For the Black Sesame Paste

• 1/3 cup Black Sesame Seeds
• 2 tbsp Powdered Monk Fruit Sweetener
• 1 tbsp Unsalted Butter, Melted
• 1 tbsp Heavy Cream

For the Blondies

• 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, Melted
• 3/4 cup Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener
• 1 large Egg
• 1 large Egg Yolk
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 2 cups Super-Fine Almond Flour
• 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1/4 tsp Salt
• 1/2 cup Sugar-Free White Chocolate Chips
• 1 tsp Toasted Sesame Seeds

How To Make

Step 1

Toast the black sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium-low heat for 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Let them cool slightly, then grind in a spice grinder or small blender until a damp, sandy powder forms.

Add the powdered sweetener, melted butter and heavy cream and blend again into a thick, smooth paste.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper.

Step 3

Whisk the melted butter and golden sweetener until glossy, then whisk in the egg, egg yolk and vanilla. Fold in the almond flour, baking powder and salt, then fold in the white chocolate chips.

Step 4

Spread the batter into the pan. Dollop the black sesame paste over the top and swirl it through the batter to create a dramatic black and gold marble pattern.

Step 5

Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the surface and bake for 24 to 28 minutes, until golden at the edges and set in the center.

Step 6

Cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares, so the nutty sesame swirl sets and the white chocolate pockets stay creamy.

Tips

Toast the Black Sesame Seeds by Scent

Since black sesame seeds are dark, you cannot rely on color changes to tell when they are done toasting.

I recommend taking them off the heat the second you smell a rich, nutty aroma. If you leave them in the hot pan too long, they quickly turn bitter.

Let them cool down completely before you grind them. If they are still hot, the trapped steam will make the seeds clump up into an oily paste instead of a fine powder.

Stick with Golden Sweetener for True Blondie Flavor

Classic blondies rely on brown sugar for their rich chew and caramel flavor.

In low carb baking, golden monk fruit sweetener mimics that exact taste without adding sugar.

If you swap it for regular white monk fruit, your blondies will still taste sweet, but you will miss out on the deep butterscotch notes that make them special.

Cool the Melted Butter Before Adding Eggs

After you melt your butter, give it about five minutes to cool on the counter before whisking in the sweetener and eggs.

If the butter is still hot, it can start cooking the eggs in the bowl and ruin the smooth texture of your batter.

Hot butter will also melt your sugar-free white chocolate chips on contact, rather than leaving nice pockets of chocolate throughout the blondies.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use store-bought black sesame paste instead of making my own?

Yes, you can use pure, unsweetened store-bought black sesame paste to save time.

Be sure to mix in the powdered sweetener, melted butter, and heavy cream so the paste remains sweet and easy to swirl into the batter.
