Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 6 tablespoons Water
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chopped vegan chocolate or chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water. Stir well and let it sit for about 10 minutes to thicken. This will be your flax egg.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, mix together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in the flax egg and mix until incorporated.
Fold in the chopped vegan chocolate or chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, and spread evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges look set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting them into squares.
Serve and enjoy your vegan, gluten-free brownies!
