Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Coconut oil
- 1 cup Coconut sugar
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Gluten-free baking powder
- 2 ounces Unsweetened baking chocolate, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, whisk in the coconut sugar and cocoa powder until the mixture is smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour and gluten-free baking powder.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Stir in the melted unsweetened baking chocolate until well incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before removing from the pan and slicing into squares.
