Ingredients

• 2 servings Dose & Co Beauty Collagen Unflavoured
• 2 tbsp matcha
• 1 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup brown sugar
• ½ tsp baking soda/powder
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups plain flour
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup white chocolate, roughly chopped

Method


Preheat the oven and prepare the baking pan:

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) and line a 20cm (8-inch) square baking pan with baking paper, ensuring it extends over the edges for easy removal of the blondies.

Mix the wet ingredients:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, Dose & Co Beauty Collagen Unflavoured, and brown sugar. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and form a smooth mixture. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until combined.

Incorporate the dry ingredients:

Stir in the matcha, flour, baking soda/powder, and the chopped white chocolate into the wet mixture. Gently fold the ingredients together until a thick, smooth batter is formed.

Bake to perfection:

Pour the blondie batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the edges turn slightly golden and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool and cut into squares:

Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the blondies to cool completely in the pan. This ensures they hold their shape. Once cooled, carefully lift the blondies out of the pan using the extended edges of the baking paper. Cut them into squares or your desired size.

Can I Use Collagen Powder in Baking?

Dose & Co Beauty Collagen Unflavoured is a versatile collagen supplement that remains stable even when used in baking. (Rest assured, collagen powder retains its benefits even at temperatures much higher than your home oven is capable of!) By incorporating this unflavoured collagen powder into your Matcha White Choc Blondies, you're adding an extra boost of collagen to support your skin's elasticity, promote healthy hair and nails, and enhance your overall well-being.
