If white chocolate is your preferred type of chocolate, this blondie recipe is for you. Cannellini beans are used as a base, but the predominant flavours you’ll taste are sweet vanilla and white chocolate, which pair perfectly with raspberries. You could also use halved strawberries if you prefer.

White cooking chocolate
100 g
Canned cannellini beans, rinsed, drained

Chop 25g of the white chocolate and set aside. Place remaining white chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on High (100%) in 15 second bursts until just melted. Stir until smooth and set aside. Process beans with 2 eggs in a food processor until smooth.

Fold in flour and baking powder, followed by bean mixture and melted white chocolate. Spread mixture into the prepared tin. Scatter raspberries and reserved chopped white chocolate over the top.
