Meyer Lemon & White Chocolate Blondies

Meyer Lemon & White Chocolate Blondies

These Meyer Lemon & White Chocolate Blondies are a bright, fresh twist on a classic blondie recipe for an easy-to-make treat that citrus-lovers will love. Blondies are bar cookies that are similar in texture to brownies – dense and chewy – but don’t use cocoa powder or chocolate in the same way that brownies do. In fact, many of them don’t use chocolate at all. These Meyer Lemon & White Chocolate Blondies do use chocolate and come so close to the texture of traditional brownies that I was tempted to call them a white chocolate brownie, even though “blondie” is a bit more accurate here.

Lemon and white chocolate are an excellent flavor combination. White chocolate is rich and buttery, sweeter than other chocolates. In good quality white chocolate – meaning white chocolate that is made with real cocoa butter and not other vegetable solids – you should taste flavors of milk and vanilla, as well as getting a smooth and creamy finish. The flavors in white chocolate go well with lemon, and the bright citrus flavor of lemon contrast well with the richer notes of the chocolate.

In this particular recipe, I opted to use meyer lemons. Meyer lemons are just as bold in flavor as regular lemons are, but they have less acidity and don’t pack quite as much bite as their regular counterparts. The meyer lemon goes particularly well with the white chocolate.

The bars are chewy and flavorful, though a crisp edge develops around the bars where the blondies come into contact with the pan. You’ll taste a strong lemon flavor, as well as a rich creaminess from the white chocolate. There is white chocolate melted into the batter and that contributes to the blondies’ satisfyingly chewy texture. There are plenty of white chocolate chips stirred into the batter, along with fresh lemon zest that really pops in the finished bake.

These blondies taste even better the day after they are baked, as the white chocolate and lemon flavors meld together and you get even more lemon flavor in every bite. If you don’t have meyer lemons available – and you can find them at many markets, as well as at farmers markets, because they grow year-round – you can use regular lemon zest. The bars will still be delicious, but the flavor will be slightly brighter than bars made with meyer lemons. The bars keep well for several days after baking when stored in an airtight container.

Meyer Lemon & White Chocolate Blondies
1/2 cup butter
2 oz white chocolate, chopped
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 large egg
1 tbsp meyer lemon zest (from 1 large lemons)
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup white chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil and lightly grease.
In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter on high heat. When butter is completely melted, add in chopped white chocolate and allow it to melt. Stir until smooth and allow to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together sugar and egg until well-combined. Beat in salt and lemon zest until well combined. Stir in chocolate mixture.
Stir in flour and mix until no streaks of dry ingredients remain. Fold in white chocolate until no streaks of flour remain.
Transfer batter – batter will be thick – to prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until bars are set and light golden.
Cool completely in the pan before slicing.

Makes 16.

What Are French Toast Sticks?

French Toast Sticks are essentially regular French toast sliced up into bite-size strips, perfect for eating with fingers and dipping into syrup! This dish is pan-fried and typically composed of bread, egg whites, milk, and spices. In my version, I use egg yolks instead of the whites, as using the whites will make it taste too eggy.

Contrary to popular belief, French toast does not originate from France – although there is a French Toast in France called pain perdu. French immigrants in America popularized the dish, hence the name French toast. The dish actually comes from a collection of Latin recipes in the 1st century CE. Since then there have been many renditions, taking on variations of names such as “eggy bread,” “Bombay toast,” “gypsy toast,” and “poor knights.”

Tools You Need To Make French Toast Sticks:

Ingredients You Need To Make French Toast Sticks:

  • Stale challah or brioche bread: Make sure to use stale or dry bread so that it soaks up the egg custard well.
  • Eggs: Use good quality large eggs, and make sure to only use the yolks!
  • Whole milk: I like to use some full-fat milk for my recipes.
  • Granulated sugar: Granulated sugar or “white sugar” will give the perfect amount of sweetness.
  • Ground Cinnamon: This spice is highly aromatic and will add a warm, sweet flavor to your French toast.
  • Vanilla extract: Vanilla extract enhances the rest of your ingredients. Make Homemade Vanilla Extract for a challenge!
  • Salt: Just a pinch will enhance the flavor of your other ingredients.
  • Butter: This will help your French toast from sticking to the pan and add some extra buttery flavor.
  • Vegetable oil: Adding oil will add some moisture, prevent butter from smoking and prevent your sticks from sticking to the skillet.
  • Maple Syrup: Serve this on the side for dipping!

Homemade Bread Vs. Store-Bought Bread

You can always use store-bought bread for your French Toast Sticks, but if you’re going to make everything else homemade, why not take a stab at making your bread from scratch? Not only will you get a lovely loaf of bread at the end, but you’ll also gain some valuable bread-baking skills.

Good news – I already have Homemade Challah and Homemade Brioche recipes for you to try out! Feel free to experiment with different kinds of bread as well.

What Dips And Toppings Go Well With French Toast Sticks?

You can always go right dusting your French Toast Sticks with powdered sugar and dipping them into a hefty amount of maple syrup or pair them with a favorite sauce

But, if you want to take your French toast to the next level, I highly recommend trying out my Homemade Raspberry Sauce for dipping and serving them alongside a fresh bowl of berries for a fruitier touch. You can even add some melted butter on top.

Can I Make French Toast Sticks Ahead Of Time?

For those mornings when you need a quick breakfast or snack, these French Toast Sticks are a great option! Simply let your bread soak in the custard overnight in the refrigerator, and fry off as usual.

How To Store French Toast Sticks

Your French Toasts Sticks are best served the day it’s fried. However, if you want to save your unfried sticks for breakfast meal-planning or to savor another day, you can place them in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days. You can also stack your sticks with some parchment paper in between, place them in a freezer bag, and freeze* them for 1 to 2 months. Or store leftovers that have been fully cooked in the freezer for 1 to 2 months.*

*Prepare for the freezer: freeze unfried or cooled cooked sticks on a baking sheet in a single layer until solid. Then transfer solid sticks into a freezer bag or container.

FAQs

Why are my French Toast Sticks soggy?

Your sticks can turn out soggy if the bread you used is too fresh and thin. It will soak up too much of the custard and make it hard to fry properly. To prevent this from happening, make sure to use stale bread, as it has a better chance of soaking up the custard. You can also take fresh bread and bake it off so that it becomes drier.

Can I make French Toast without eggs?

Yes, you can! Although the taste and texture will differ without the egg yolks, you can make a great alternative version without eggs. Check out my Egg Substitutes article for more details.

Can I cook French Toast Sticks in the air fryer?

Air fryers are super convenient and are another option for cooking your French Toast Sticks. To air fry your French Toast, line or spray the basket with nonstick oil. Place your sticks inside, making sure they aren’t too crowded and fry them off at 375 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 to 6 minutes. In between, make sure to flip them so they are evenly cooked on both sides, and enjoy!

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips:

  • Stale bread is best for soaking up the custard.
  • If your bread is very fresh, cut it into strips and bake them for 15-20 minutes at 250°F (120°C) or until the bread feels firm and dry (but not toasted).
  • You can add flavors like orange zest or a touch of nutmeg or cardamom to your custard for a different flavor.
  • Keep the heat low when cooking or the outside burns before the inside gets cooked.
  • Try serving this with my Homemade Raspberry Sauce for dipping!
  • Make this extra special by serving this with a scoop of Breakfast Ice Cream!
  • Use my Homemade Challah or Brioche for this recipe.

Chai Tea Latte (Starbucks Copycat)

This chai tea latte is a Starbucks copycat that’s warm and comforting with chai spice and tea, maple syrup, and milk. It’s paleo and vegan but can easily be made traditionally as well.

I hope you’ve been enjoying the healthy drinks I’ve been posting lately like this Matcha Protein Shake and these Turmeric Ginger Shots. It’s still terribly cold here, so here’s a hot drink to warm up with!

Should it already be warming up in your neck of the woods, try this Iced Chai Latte. It’s simply an iced version of today’s recipe. 🙂

Ingredients

You only need 4 ingredients and boiling water to make this.

  • Boiling water — is used to steep the tea bags to create our chai concentrate. Make sure it’s very hot!
  • Chai tea bag — I used a chai tea bag for this latte, but you could make it with a winter spice or earl grey tea.
  • Chai spice — is a great way to add even more chai flavor to your latte.
  • Milk — I used cashew milk to make this latte, but any milk will work.
  • Sweetener — maple syrup, honey or brown sugar work.

How to make in advance

You can make it ahead by making a big batch of chai concentrate and keeping it in your fridge so you have it ready for the week! Just warm it for 30 seconds in the microwave before making a hot latte or use it cold for an iced latte.

I use 1 cup of boiling water, 4 tea bags, and 1 teaspoon of chai spice.

What is chai?

The Hindi word for tea is chai. It refers to a mix of spices like cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and black pepper that is steeped like tea and is considered a healing beverage.

Each ingredient in chai spice contributes to health benefits that make you feel good with each sip.

Black pepper and ginger help stimulate digestion and much more. You can read more extensively on the benefits of ginger here.

Cloves have natural painkilling and antibacterial properties, cardamom has been used as a mood elevator and cinnamon helps to support circulation and respiratory functions.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

What does chai taste like?

Chai has earthy notes like tea spiced with zingy ginger and sweetened with cinnamon with fragrant herbal notes of cardamon and cloves. It can be spicier with more ginger and pepper or less spicy with more cinnamon.

Its warming spices are robust and soothing.

Chai spice powder

Morton and Basset is my favorite chai spice, but if you can’t find it in your grocery store, you can make your chai spice mix or swap it for cinnamon.

I also like this Spicewalla Masala Chai Spice which contains ginger, cinnamon, green cardamom, black pepper, clove and allspice. It’s a finely ground powder mix that is needed for this drink.

Often, when you search for chai spice powder, you get spice mixes but not finely ground powders, so you definitely want the fine powder mix for this drink.

If you’re vegan or have dietary restrictions, watch out for milk powder and sugar in the ingredients list. You definitely don’t want that for this recipe.

Paleo and vegan

This chai latte recipe is both vegan and paleo. But before you buy chai spice powder or chai tea bags, you should check for funky additives like artificial coloring, flavorings or sweeteners. You’ll also want to avoid products with any milk powders.

For paleo, you’ll want to use unsweetened cashew or almond milk that doesn’t contain additives.

Can I use a different sweetener?

Yes, but it depends on your dietary restrictions. If you don’t have any limits, you can use whatever type of sweetener you’d like.

I use maple syrup to sweeten my drinks and have close to 200 baked treats that are sweetened with maple syrup. I think maple syrup complements the flavors in this drink perfectly, but again, it’s up to you.

Honey would also be nice if you’re not vegan, and I think maple sugar would be nice. It might be more difficult to dissolve, but I think it would taste great.

Do I have to use cashew milk?

Nope! I almost always used cashew milk because it’s creamy, but you can use whatever milk you want.

Almond milk is a good alternative for a paleo or vegan diet. But Can you Froth Almond Milk? Yes, you can, and if you read the post, you’ll learn the best ways to froth plant-based milk for all your lattes.

Soy and oat milk are also good options, and to make a traditional latte, use whole milk.

Does chai have caffeine?

If you’re using black tea with chai spice, it has caffeine. You can make non-caffeinated chai by mixing the chai spice in hot water and adding sweetener and milk.

You can also find chai tea bags that don’t contain black or green tea, just the spice mix, that are non-caffeinated.

Other chai treats you might like

I hope you’ll love this chai tea latte! I’d love to see your photos if you share them on social media. Please tag #texanerin so I can be sure to see them. Thanks. 🙂

Chai Tea Latte (Starbucks Copycat)

Chai Tea Latte (Starbucks Copycat)
  • Prep Time: 5 min
  • Cook Time: 10 min
  • Ready in: 15 min
  • Yield: 1 drink

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) cup boiling water
  • 1 chai tea bag
  • 1/4 teaspoon chai spice
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk of choice (I used cashew)
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup, to taste

Directions

  1. Place the boiling water in a small bowl with the chai tea bag and chai spice. Allow the chai concentrate to steep for 10 minutes.
  2. Carefully squeeze the tea bag (be careful as it’ll be hot) to extract all of its flavors, and whisk the chai concentrate to ensure the spices are fully combined.
  3. Warm the milk and maple syrup (either in the microwave or a small pot over medium heat on the stove) just until it begins to steam. For dairy milk, the best temperature for frothing is 140-155 °F (60-68 °C) and for plant-based milk, it’s 150 °F (65 °C).
  4. Froth the milk using your favorite method – a handheld frother, a wand, in the blender, etc.
  5. Add the chai concentrate to your mug and top with frothed milk. Garnish with a sprinkle of chai spice and enjoy immediately.

Stuffed chicken breast with spinach - featured image

Remember when, on Easter mornings, you would crack open a chocolate egg, only to find a toy or — gasp! — chocolate bars inside? Well, this is sort of like that, except instead of chocolate inside chocolate, it’s spinach and ricotta inside a chicken breast. So it’s the adult equivalent. Seriously though, it’s something healthy and delicious inside something healthy and delicious. It feels decadent and yet, it is so healthy. And if you’re feeding this to your kids, it’s a great way to get some greens in them without them really being aware of it. AND it’s quick and easy. Need I say more?

Variations //

Here are a few other ideas for you on what combinations you could use to stuff the chicken:

  • Kale and mozzarella
  • Mushrooms, spinach and feta
  • Sundried tomato and cream cheese
  • Broccoli and cheddar

You can also rub some spices or herbs with a little olive oil onto the chicken to add extra flavour and colour:

  • Smoked paprika
  • Thyme
  • Curry spice
  • Mixed herbs

FAQs //

Can I substitute one ingredient for another?

Absolutely, see what you have in the fridge; this recipe is a good way to use up any vegetables you may have from previous meals. Take a look at the ‘Variations’ section to get some ideas.

My dish tastes bland. What did I do wrong?

Try to add more of the filling in so that it is really stuffed. Don’t forget that butter, it really adds some decadence. You could also add ingredients with more robust flavor, like olives or sundried tomatoes.

Why did my chicken turn out dry?

Ovens vary. What is ‘high’ heat in one might ‘medium-high’ in another. You might need to cut down the cooking time, or you could try covering the chicken with foil or a lid to keep some of the moisture in the pan.

Just how much is a pat of butter?

Ha! It’s like asking how much is in a dash of salt. The general consensus is, a pat of butter is equal to about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons. I like to think of it as a little slice (see pics).

How To Store Stuffed Chicken Breast //

Let the chicken cool completely. Wrap each breast in plastic or aluminum foil. It will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also freeze the chicken. Wrap it in plastic or foil then place it in a freezer-safe bag or container. It should last for up to 3 months. When reheating, make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
