Servings: 12 brownies
Ingredients
Brownies
- 4 eggs
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or liquid stevia
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1/2 cup cacao powder cocoa powder can be subbed
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup raspberries
Raspberry Chocolate Sauce
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- 1/4 cup raspberries
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips dairy free
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease with olive oil.
- Mix the eggs, oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract together in a bowl.
- Add the flour, cacao, baking soda and salt to combine.
- Next add the raspberries breaking them down into the batter with a spatula. Don't leave them whole in the batter as it will weight it down and be difficult to slice into and eat.
- Bake at 350 F for 30 minutes or until a toothpick can be inserted in the center.
- Remove from the oven and cool in the pan 10-15 minutes before slicing into 16 brownies.
- While the brownies cool in the pan, make the sauce by placing the ingredients in a glass bowl over a pot of boiling water. Make sure the pot is large enough to sit on top of the pot.
- Stir the ingredients together until smooth. Pour over the brownies and devour!
Notes
- The brownies are lightly sweetened as I am do not like things super sweet. You can add up to a 1/2 cup total of maple syrup if they are not sweet enough for you. This will alter the nutritional info.
- Nutritional info does not include raspberry chocolate sauce.
- My Amazon shop has more products similar to those used for this recipe and that I recommend to my nutrition clients.
