Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cup Cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Almond milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 cup Sliced almonds
- 0.5 cup Dairy-free dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring the sides are covered for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and cocoa powder. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
Melt the coconut oil over low heat in a small saucepan just until it becomes liquid, then remove it from the heat.
Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond milk to the dry ingredients. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
Stir in the sea salt and sliced almonds. Ensure the almonds are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the dairy-free dark chocolate chips evenly over the top of the batter for an extra chocolatey touch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the edges are firm and the center has set. Be careful not to overbake.
Remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer the dessert to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy your luscious almond chocolate dairy-free dessert!
