With Valentines Day right around the corner, I was inspired to bake something chocolatey and delicious! These brownies are so decadent, you wouldn’t believe that they are somewhat healthy! At least a whole lot healthier than most other brownie options out there!
Ingredients:
3/4 cup tahini
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tbsp melted and cooled coconut oil
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon coconut flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup chocolate chips (my preference)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, add the tahini, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract and eggs and mix until smooth
In a small bowl, mix together cocoa powder, coconut flour, salt and baking soda.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until the batter is smooth.
Fold in 1/3 cup chocolate chips into the batter.
Spread batter evenly into a parchment-paper lined or greased 8x8 pan.
Bake for 22 minutes or until knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.
After brownies have cooled a few minutes, drizzle with tahini or almond butter and a pinch of sea salt (optional).
