Ingredients

½ cup melted coconut oil or butter
½ cup unsweetened almond butter*
3 eggs
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
⅓ cup coconut flour
1 cup coconut sugar**
3/4 cup raw cacao powder
½ tsp sea salt
1 cup chocolate chips optional***

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 8” x 8” square pan with parchment paper (or use cooking spray).
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil and sunflower seed butter (or peanut butter, almond butter, or nut butter of choice) until creamy. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until everything is well-combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, stir together the coconut flour, coconut sugar (or granulated sweetener of choice), cacao powder, and sea salt until combined. Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients and stir well until everything is well-combined and a thick batter forms.
Stir in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spread the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan into an even layer. If desired, top with more chocolate chips.
Bake for 30 minutes on the center rack, or just until the center of the brownies has set up. For gooier fudge brownies, bake for 26 to 28 minutes.
Allow the brownies to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

*Use sunflower seed butter, peanut butter, or cashew butter as a replacement for the almond butter if you’d like. Just note that whatever nut butter you use, you will be able to taste.

**You can also use granulated cane sugar or sugar-free sweetener for keto brownies.

***Use sugar-free chocolate chips in conjunction with sugar-free sweetener for a keto option.

Store any leftover brownies covered in plastic wrap on the counter for up to 3 days or in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. These brownies freeze well! To freeze brownies, seal them in a zip lock bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
