Low Carb Peanut Butter Blondies

Boasting only 3 net carbs per serving, these low carb peanut butter blondies are a great treat when following a low carb diet. Grain-free baking at it's finest!INGREDIENTS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (325 degrees convection)
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened coconut oil, peanut butter, pure vanilla extract, BochaSweet and beat on medium speed until the mixture is pale and fluffy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.
Add eggs and mix until combined.
In a small separate bowl, weigh your coconut flour and add salt. Mix this dry mixture into your wet peanut butter mixture for about two minutes, making sure the coconut flour is thoroughly combined. The mixture will thicken as you mix it as the coconut flour absorbs moisture from the wet ingredients.
Finally, add your grain free baking powder. If you can't find grain free baking powder you can substitute 1/3 tsp cream of tarter plus 2/3 tsp baking soda. If you make this substitution, work quickly to get your bars in the oven as this is a single acting compound and needs to be baked right away to yield a good rise.
Pour batter into a greased 9x9 baking pan.
Bake for 17-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Be careful not to over-bake.
Allow to cool before cutting into pieces. Enjoy!
