Cook Time: 25 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: Brazilian
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9x9 inch (23x23 cm) baking pan with a little coconut oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the brownies later.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Mix these dry ingredients thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of all components.
- In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Once the batter is mixed, pour it into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly across the pan.
- Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. To check for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center of the brownies; it should come out with a few moist crumbs but not wet batter.
- Once baked, remove the brownies from the oven and let them cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- After the brownies have cooled, cut them into 12 equal squares. Enjoy your delicious Brownie Fit Sem Glúten e Lactose as a healthy treat!
Tips
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure your coconut oil is fully melted but not hot when mixing with eggs.
- Do not overmix the batter – this can lead to tough brownies.
- For extra moisture, you can add a handful of dark chocolate chips (ensure they're dairy-free).
- Let the brownies cool completely before cutting to help them set properly.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for a week.
- For a protein boost, consider adding a scoop of dairy-free protein powder to the dry ingredients.
