Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper or grease it lightly with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, and sea salt until well combined and free from lumps.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond milk, melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until fully combined and a thick batter forms.
If desired, fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips for extra sweetness and texture.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs (avoid overbaking for fudgier brownies).
Remove the pan from the oven and let the brownies cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
Serve and enjoy your dense, delicious brownies! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
