Vegan grain-FREE & nut-free brownies

Grain-free and nut-free brownies that don’t require any refined sugar. Naturally sweetened with banana and pure maple syrup. The perfect thick and chewy texture with a rich taste. Healthy alternative to its traditional counterpart.

Ingredients

3 ripe bananas, mashed

2 flax eggs (2T ground flax + 5T water)

1 cup cassava flour

2T cacao powder

1/4 cup pure maple syrup (you can use monk fruit syrup instead for a low sugar option)

1/4 cup water

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup Enjoy Life semi-sweet morsels (you can use cacao nibs instead for no refined sugar)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350.

Make flax egg and set aside to thicken.

In a mixing bowl, combine mash bananas and remaining ingredients (except chocolate chips). Add flax egg.

Fold in chocolate chips.

Spread batter into a parchment lined 9x9 dish.

Bake for 30-45 minutes (I like firm edges so I cook mine for 45 minutes).

Allow to completely cool before cutting.

I cut mine into 36 squares. Each one is 2sp.
