Paleo Almond Butter Brownies
Description
These brownies use almond butter and almond meal instead of traditional flour to create a paleo-friendly dessert with a moist, soft texture. Melted coconut oil and raw honey provide sweetness and richness, while cacao powder adds chocolate depth. The batter incorporates an egg and vanilla extract to bind and flavor the ingredients before folding in chocolate chips and chopped walnuts. Baked in an 8x8 inch dish at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30-35 minutes, the brownies develop a slightly crisp edge while remaining tender inside. Cooling before cutting allows them to set properly. The walnuts distributed throughout add crunch and contrast to the fudgy chocolate base.
