Notes
- The batter for these dairy-free gluten-free brownies is THICK. You won’t be pouring it into the pan so much as scraping and dumping.
- Use a spatula to press the gluten-free brownies into the bottom of the pan and even it out.
- Do not slice the gluten-free brownies right out of the oven. Let them cool! They come out delicate.
- The gluten-free brownie recipe needs to be stored in the fridge because of the eggs. However, serve them at room temperature.
- Protein powder cannot be subbed in for the collagen.
- Depending on the coconut oil you choose, there may be a slight coconut flavor to the chocolate drizzle (less processed coconut oils have a hint of coconut to them).
