Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- ¾ cup creamy almond butter (192g) unsalted
- ¼ cup apple sauce unsweetened or sweetened (room temperature)
- ¼ cup maple syrup room temperature
- ⅓ cup coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder (26g)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup chocolate chips optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly grease and line an 8x8” baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, almond butter, apple sauce, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract together.
- Add the cocoa powder and baking soda. Mix until just combined, then hand-fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into greased baking pan and top with a handful of additional chocolate chips.
- Bake for 20 - 25 minutes, depending on how fudgy you want them. I usually do 22 minutes for a denser/gooier brownie. If you want more cakey brownies, bake them on the longer side.
- Cool completely before slicing!
Notes
- Almond Butter: You can substitute almond butter for peanut butter, cashew butter, tahini, or sun butter.
- Coconut Sugar: You can also use brown sugar.
- Use good quality cocoa powder. This is my #1 baking tip for brownies, especially these flourless ones. Make sure to use a high-quality cocoa powder like Ghirardelli for the best-tasting brownies. If you use a poor-quality brand like Trader Joe’s or Hersey’s, your brownies will lack the chocolate flavor and can be chalky.
- Nut-Free: Since there is almond butter in these brownies, they are not naturally nut-free. Feel free to substitute the almond butter for sun butter or tahini if you have a nut allergy.
- Storing: For best results, store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Freezing: You can freeze these brownies for up to 3 months. Simply let them cool for at least 1 hour, cut them into squares, and then wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Finally, add them to a freezer-safe bag and freeze them for up to 3 months.
