Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Erythritol or preferred sugar substitute
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 0.5 cup Freshly squeezed orange juice
- 1 tablespoon Orange zest
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking pan with a little coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs until they are frothy. Gradually whisk in the almond milk, melted coconut oil, freshly squeezed orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract.
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. Make sure not to overmix.
Fold in the sugar-free dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the Chocolate Orange Delight to cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy this sugar-free treat as a dessert or a special snack.
