To Do for Fall: Bake These Pistachio Butter Blondie Bars

Pistachios contain high levels of fiber and protein making these pistachio butter blondie bars a perfect accompaniment to your morning coffee or a wonderful after school snack. Dastony Pistachio Butter adds a nice nutty and creaminess to these bars, while providing your body with antioxidants and essential vitamins and minerals like vitamins B-6 and potassium.

4. Add your dry mixture to the batter and mix until well combined.
5. Pour batter into parchment lined baking pan.
