This recipe is a bit different than most of the ones we send, as it’s a dessert recipe, which involves no meat or vegetables. But if you’re going to make brownies, we suggest this as a much healthier recipe than anything you can find in a box at your local grocery store! This recipe is modified from one at Redeeming the Table.
Ingredients:
- 1 jar of raw unsalted almond butter (16 ounces) (Trader Joe’s has it!)
- 1/2-2/3 cup raw honey
- 2 large omega-3 eggs
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp Celtic sea salt
- 1/3-1/2 cup of a chopped 72% cacao chocolate bar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (technically optional, but necessary to keep stirring since the batter gets so thick)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9×13 pan with a thin layer of coconut oil and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine almond butter, honey and vanilla and mix using an electric mixer for 1 minute on low, or mix by hand very thoroughly by hand. Add eggs and continue mixing on low until thoroughly mixed.
- Add cocoa powder, baking soda, salt and almond milk and start mixing on low, and then move to a medium speed. Mix for about another minute. Add the chocolate during the last 10 seconds to disperse it throughout the batter.
- Use a rubber spatula to scrape all batter from the edges of the bowl and spread evenly into the 9×13 pan.
- Cook for 20-30 minutes (less for a more gooey/fudgey, and longer for cakey consistency).
- Allow to cool, then cut into squares (preferably small ones) and serve.
