Description

These brownies will knock your socks off. Almond flour brownies are dense and fudgy and will satisfy your intense chocolate cravings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 Cups Almond Flour
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Small-Medium Zucchini, grated (about 1 Cup)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/4 Cup Greek Yogurt
  • 1/2 Cup Coconut Oil, melted
  • 4 Ounces Dark Chocolate
  • 1/2 Cup Maple Syrup
  • 1 Teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 Teaspoon Espresso Powder (optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon Chia Seeds (optional)
  • 2 Tablespoon Flax Seed (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Over a double broiler melt the dark chocolate. Once melted and smooth remove from heat and let cool.
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl melt the coconut oil.
  4. In the same bowl add in melted chocolate, greek yogurt, maple syrup, and eggs. Whisk until everything is mixed and well combined.
  5. In a large bowl add in almond flour, baking soda, salt and grated zucchini (plus espresso powder, chia and flax seed if using). Stir until combined.
  6. Add wet mixture to the almond flour bowl and mix until well combined.
  7. Line a 9x13 cookie sheet with parchment paper. Pour brownies mixture onto line sheet and spread out evenly making sure to push to edges.
  8. Place in oven and cook for 40-45 minutes.
  9. Remove and let cool completely. Add to the refrigerator and cool for another 1-2 hours.
  10. Remove from refrigerator and slice into 24 1" bars. Enjoy!

Notes

  1. I have found these are best enjoyed cold. Once cooled and chilled the texture turns into a dense and fudgy brownie. If eaten warm it can be a little crumbly. Keep in fridge for up to 10 days or in the freezer for 3 months. If wanted to be enjoyed warm just pop in the microwave for 15 seconds.
