  1. First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Add parchment paper to an 8-inch by 8-inch square pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs and coconut sugar. Whisk vigorously (or use a hand mixer) for 2 to 3 minutes, until completely mixed.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the melted coconut oil and chopped chocolate. Stir until completely creamy. If needed, microwave for 15 seconds to melt the chocolate.
  4. Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture. Stir together.
  5. Then, add in the vanilla, cocoa powder, and tapioca flour. Stir together.
  6. Stir in more chopped chocolate if desired.
  7. Transfer the brownie batter to the parchment-lined pan. Smooth into an even layer.
  8. Bake for 24 to 27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
  9. Finally, remove the Paleo brownies from the oven. Cool fully before slicing into.

  • Whisk the eggs and coconut sugar vigorously.  This helps create a beautiful shiny top on the brownies.
  • If you have a hand mixer or stand mixer, that works even better.
  • If needed, replace the melted coconut oil with melted butter.
  • You may need to quickly microwave the melted coconut oil and chocolate so that it becomes fully melted and creamy.  There should be no chunks of chocolate left.
  • Do not overbake the brownies.  Insert a toothpick into the center.  The brownies are done if it comes out mostly clean with only a few moist crumbs.
  • Allow the brownies to fully cool before slicing into.
  • Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
  • Freeze for up to 1 month.
