mmm ... brownies

Every now and then you need a Brownie. Soft, chewy, moist.  

I found this recipe in my "Make it Paleo" book and I am hooked. As with every recipe I tweek it just a bit to make it how I like it.

Anytime I bring these to a party, no one believes there's no sugar or flour in them and asks for the recipe. 

Almond Brownies

1/2 cup of coconut oil

1/2 cup of butter

5 oz bittersweet chocolate

1 cup pure maple syrup

heat on low in saucepan til chocolate is melted. remove from heat.

sift & stir in 1/4 cup of cocoa powder until evenly combined. Set aside to cool.

preheat oven to 350F.

Blend 4 eggs, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp baking soda & 2 tsps vanilla extract in a medium bowl until smooth.

Add 12 oz Almond Butter and mix well. 

Slowly add the melted chocolate, continuing to blend.

Add 1/4 cup coconut flour and blend until mixture is evenly combined. 

Pour into lightly greased 9” x 13” glass baking dish & bake 30 mins.
