Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 3/4 cup natural almond butter make sure it’s runny, it’s imperative for the texture of the brownies
- 1/4 cup + 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 3 tbsp almond milk
- 1 egg or sub 2 flax eggs for vegan (2 tbsp ground flax seed + 6 tbsp water. Mix and let sit for ten minutes then add to wet ingredients)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup blanched almond flour
- 5 tbsp dark cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp instant espresso
- 1/4 tsp pink salt
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips plus more for topping
Instructions
- First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grab an 8×8 glass baking dish and line with parchment paper.
- Next, grab a medium mixing bowl and start with your wet ingredients. After you add all of your wet ingredients, whisk very well.
- Next, add in your dry ingredients and use a spatula to mix until all of the ingredients are well incorporated, and the mixture is smooth and thick but should be easily pourable. Stir in your chocolate chips.
- Add the batter to your prepared baking dish and top with more chocolate chips. Bake in the oven for around 21 to 26 minutes. All ovens very so please check on these around the 21 minute mark. The brownies are done when a knife or toothpick inserted in the middle comes out mostly clean. Don’t over bake!
- Let the brownies cool, then slice, top with some sea salt and enjoy!
