- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and grease and line a 9x9in baking tin.
- Place the cooked apples, almond butter, coconut sugar and vanilla in a food processor (I use my Ninja Kitchen Nutri Ninja) and blend until smooth.
- Stir in the flours, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg and mix until well combined the fold in the apple pieces.
- Spread the mixture in an even layer in the tin then bake for 25 minutes until golden and firm.
- Leave to cool completely in the tin.
- Next gently melt the ingredients for the caramel glaze on a low heat and whisk until smooth.
- Pour this over the cooled blondies then place in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up slightly.
- Cut into pieces, top each one with a pecan half – then enjoy!
