Super Brownies (Vegan, Gluten-free)
Servings
16 squares
Ingredients
- ¼ cup natural nut butter
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- ⅓ cup nut milk
- ¼ cup + 2 tbsp melted neutral oil
- ¾ cup unsweetened good quality Cacao Powder
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 flax eggs (2 tbsp ground flax + 6 tsp water, whisk together, set for 10 mins)
- ¼ cup + 2 tbsp almond or hazelnut flour
- ½ cup chopped pecans
- ¼ cup vegan chocolate chips or chunks
Method
- Preheat oven to 325°F.
- Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together almond butter, coconut sugar, milk, and oil. Whisk until it looks like a grainy caramel.
- Add cocoa powder carefully, whisking until shiny and smooth and scraping down the sides of the bowl.
- Add in vanilla and salt.
- Add flax eggs, mixing until well incorporated.
- Finally, whisk in the flour. As the batter gets harder to mix, switch to a rubber spatula.
- Add the pecans and chocolate chips/chunks.
- Pour batter into the pan and smooth into an even layer.
- For the topping, sprinkle ½ cup pecans evenly over brownies. Press pecans down.
- Bake for 28-32 minutes. Mine took 30 minutes. Cool for 1 hour.
- Optional: when cooled, place in the fridge.
- Slice into 16 squares. Decorate with Cacao Nibs.
