Fudgey Avocado Brownies
A deliciously healthy brownie recipe that is gluten-free, vegan, fiber & antioxidant rich.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 2 large avocados
- 2 tbsp flax powder
- 6 tbsp water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup apple sauce
- 4 squares Lily's Chocolate
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 5 tbsp cacoa powder
- sliced strawberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Grease 8 x 8 pan with coconut oil or coconut oil spray.
- In a small bowl, whisk together flax powder & water. Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes until thickened.
- In a food processor, combine coconut flour, avocados, flax mixture, vanilla, coconut sugar, apple sauce, chocolate, baking soda & salt. Process on high until well combined, scrapping the sides as needed. Then add cacoa powder and process again for about 30 seconds or until well combined.
- Pour batter into pan and bake for 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven & place sliced strawberries on top, pressing gently into brownie surface. Bake for another 10-15 minutes, until edges are hardened. The center might still be gooey, but letting them sit in the fridge after cooling will allow it to set.
- Once the brownies have fully cooled, place them in fridge to chill for about 1 hour & then slice into squares & enjoy!
