Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.33 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Coconut sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional, for extra fudginess)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang to easily lift out the brownies later.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined and free of lumps.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, folding them together gently with a spatula until a thick, smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.
If using dark chocolate chips, fold them into the batter evenly.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with the spatula.
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the edges are set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (do not overbake!).
Remove the pan from the oven and allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan. This helps them firm up and allows for easier slicing.
Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the brownies out of the pan, then slice into 12 squares. Serve and enjoy your Fudgy No Guilt Brownies!
