    Simple And Delicious Almond Croissant Blondies

    Who does not like a delicious and decadent Almond Croissant? Or maybe I should ask, who loves an Almond Croissant but does not want to go through the hassle of making them? These Simple And Delicious Almond Croissant Blondies have the ultimate rich flavour of an almond croissant minus the effort to make a batch of croissants.

    About These Simple And Delicious Almond Croissant Blondies

    • These Simple And Delicious Almond Croissant Blondies are seriously Simple to prepare and unbelievably delicious! Their name serves the flavour nicely.
    • These blondies contain two separate parts to create the ultimate Almond Croissant flavour. You will experience the crunchy almond top and soft and chewy inside each bite.
    • We need to make a filling called FRANGIPANE  or Almond Cream. Frangipane is a filling that has the consistency of paste and requires a few of your pantry ingredients. Frangipane is a creamy paste in many French pastries, such as Almond Croissants or Bakewell cakes. All we need to make the Frangipane is Butter, Sugar, All-purpose Flour, Almond Flour, Egg, Vanilla Paste, and Almond Extract.
    • I prefer using vanilla Paste for the Frangipane; however, vanilla extract will be fine.

    • The second part of this Almond Croissant Blondies recipe is the blondie recipe, which again requires a list of simple ingredients.
    • These blondies have a soft and flavourful body and are topped with layers of Silvered almond and Turbinado sugar. This will give these blondies a crunchy top that perfectly balances the soft inside texture.
    • These Simple And Delicious Almond Croissant Blondies have the exact flavour of a decadent Almond Croissant.

    How to Make These Blondies

    Frangipane;

    • Beat the room-temperature butter with sugar until the mixture is light and creamy.
    • Add in the egg and extracts and mix well.
    • Whisk together both flours and add them to the butter mixture. The mixture will have the consistency of a paste.
    • Frangipane adds a creamy almond texture and flavour to many recipes.

    The Blondies

    • The blondie batter has a simple list of ingredients: butter, Brown Sugar, Egg, Egg Yolk, All-purpose Flour, Almond Flour, Vanilla and Almond Extract, one cup of Frangipane, Silvered Almond, and Turbinado Sugar.
    • Beat the butter and brown sugar until it is creamy and smooth.
    • Add in the egg, yolk, and both extracts and beat well.
    • Whisk together both flours and gently fold them into the above mixture. The mixture will be thick.
    • Line and grease an 8-inch square pan. Spread ⅔ of the batter at the bottom of the pan.
    • Spread the Frangipane over the batter and cover the top with the remaining blondie batter.
    • Sprinkle the top with almond flakes, and top them with Turbinado sugar. Repeat only these sprinkling sugar and almond flakes steps twice or thrice, and ensure the top is covered with more almond flakes.
    • Bake the blondies in a 350F oven for 30-35 minutes, or until an insert comes out almost clear and the top is golden brown. Do not overbake.
    • Let the blondies cool down in the pan for an hour, then transfer them to the cooling rack to cool down fully.
    • Cut the blondies into squares and sprinkle the top with powdered sugar.

            Hi Lindi, Turbinado sugar is similar to Demerara or raw sugar. It is basically a coarse brown sugar with larger crystals. Please let me know if you have any questions 🙂

      Hi! This looks AMAZING. I am planning on making these tonight. When you say "repeat these steps" in the instructions, which steps are you referring to?

      My understanding is: Spread 2/3 of the blondie batter, spread frangipane over that, then the remaining 1/3 of the blondie batter, almonds, then the sugar on top.

        Hi Mallory, I am referring to sprinkling the top with the Turbinado sugar and alternating with Almond flakes. This needs to repeat three times or at least twice. Please let me know if there is any other questions!

      If I wanted to bake these in a 9x13 should I double the recipe? How should these be stored?

        Hi Elise, Yes, Please double the recipe if making it in a 9X13 inch pan. These blondies will keep for about a week in an air tight container in the fridge. To freeze, wrap the sliced blondies in plastic wrap, then transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag. Freeze for up to three months. Thaw at room temperature.
