Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • ⅓ cup maple syrup
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips sugar-free

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper for easier removal.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  6. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then lift them out using the parchment paper and let them cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.
