Gluten Free Healthy Brownies / Keto Friendly
A quick, guilt-free and deliciously healthier brownie recipe.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 large avocado
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tbsp refined coconut oil use unrefined for coconut flavor
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar use xylitol for keto version
- 1/2 cup blanched almond flour coconut flour works too!
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chucks or chips plus extra for sprinkling on top
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350° F and line your pan with parchment paper; I like to cut mine longways to fit the bottom and leave an overhang on the sides, which allows me to pull up and easily remove them once cooled.
- Scoop out your avocado and toss it in a food processor along with the eggs, coconut oil, coconut sugar & vanilla. Process until it is completely creamed together and silky.
- Add the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt and process until completely combined.
- Remove your bowl from the processor and stir in your chocolate chunks (or chips) with a spatula.
- Pour your batter into your prepared pan and make sure to smooth it out evenly. Sprinkle a few more chocolate chunks (or chips) on top.
- Bake for 20 min or until the top is set and bounces back when lightly touched with your finger. Let cool completely before removing from pan and slicing.
Notes
🧡 Pro tip: If you want your brownies to have a light coconut taste, use unrefined coconut oil and also stir in 1/4 cup of unsweetened coconut flakes with your chocolate chunks!
