Number of servings
2
1⁄8 cup (15 2⁄3g) coconut oil melted
1⁄8 cup (16ml) maple syrup (honey or rice malt syrup)
1⁄4 large egg
1⁄8 tsp vanilla extract
1⁄3 cup (31 1⁄4g) almond meal
1⁄4 tbs cocoa powder (or cacao powder)
1⁄4 tsp bi-carb soda
1⁄4 tsp salt
1⁄8 cup (7 1⁄2g) 70% dark chocolate chips (or dairy-free alternative) roughly chopped
Caramel Sauce
5g pitted medjool dates chopped
1⁄8 cup (8ml) almond milk (or dairy alternative)
1⁄8 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt
Preheat oven to 175°C/fan 155°C/gas 3 and line a 20 x 20cm square baking tin with baking paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together oil, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla extract.
Add almond meal, cocoa, bi-carb soda and salt to wet ingredients and whisk well to combine. Stir through chopped chocolate and pour into pan.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is set and brownies are cooked through. They will continue to cook for a few minutes with the residual heat of the pan. Allow to cool completely before slicing (the hardest part!)
Meanwhile, to make caramel sauce, heat ingredients in a saucepan until barely simmering. Remove from heat and set aside for 5 minutes to infuse flavours and cool down. Carefully, blend sauce until smooth, pour over cooled brownies and devour!
