Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup carob powder
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, carob powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Mix until well blended.
- In another bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Make sure everything is well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a thick batter forms. If you are using dairy-free chocolate chips, fold them into the batter at this stage.
- Spread the brownie batter evenly in the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking!
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting into squares.
