Mmmm, Healthy Toffee Oatmeal Blondie Batter! Like a mixture between cookie dough and cake batter, but just a little different — not firm like cookie dough and not pourable like cake batter… it’s juuuust right!
But here, I delved deeper into the “healthy-doughs-and-batters” world by using a different bean–the cannellini bean!
Don’t worry! You can’t taste them at all!
Cannellini beans are similar in color to chickpeas but have the same fudgy texture as black beans. Without the beans, this would just be a delicious oatmeal. Dump some beans in a blender and add it to the mix, and then you get blondie batter, fudgy yummy and sweet blondie batter! Despite the oats, this doesn’t look or taste healthy at all. It’s too sweet, too buttery, too flavorful! It tastes better than the stuff you can buy in the tubs. Plus it’s healthier and all natural. Skip the processed storebought stuff and make this instead, you’ll save time and gas from driving to the store! Oh, and did I mention it takes only 10 minutes to make?!?
Win win win.

Because I used a lot more oats than my other cookie doughs and batters, this needs more time in the fridge for the oats to soften up. Plus, the flavors meld together overnight and it tastes 17x better after that totally unbearable super long wait a night in the fridge. But it’s 100% worth it. You have dessert — I mean breakfast — all ready for you by morning!
