Gooey Chocolate Brownies

 


Everyone needs a good, gooey, crackly, CHOCOLATEY brownie mix in their preserved recipes.

This one is my go-to. Tested. Tried. And true, she’s a thing of beauty.

Use eggs or some Aquafaba for a vegan option, both work to give you the better than box brownies that dreams are made of.

Gooey Chocolate Brownies
Author: Consciously Coastal
prep time: 10 minutes | cook time: 35-45 minutes | Servings: 12

Ingredients:

  • 3 eggs or ½ cup aquafaba
  • 1 c coconut sugar
  • 1/3 c almond flour
  • 2 tbs coconut flour
  • 2 tbs dairy free milk
  • 2 tbs cacao powder
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup chocolate, melted down (I used @evolvedchocolate bars)
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • ½ tsp Himalayan salt
  • optional: can use 2 tbs coffee in place of milk for espresso brownies 😍

Instructions:
Note: this recipe works best with a hand or standing mixer! If you have neither, that’s okay, a hand whisk is fine! Don’t stress the first step.

  1. Preheat your oven to 325F. In a bowl, combine eggs or aquafaba with coconut sugar. Using a mixer, whip together on a high setting until nice and fluffy, this could take up to 5 minutes.
  2. Next Stir in the almond flour, coconut flour, cacao powder, milk (or coffee), and vanilla extract. Stir until combined.
  3. Using either the double boiler method OR your microwave for convenience - combine 1 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 cup coconut oil until smoothly melted together. If using a microwave, do 60 second intervals and stir each round so not to burn.
  4. Once smooth, pour into the brownie batter and fold in to combine. Pour brownie batter into a sprayed (or lined with parchment) baking pan. Top with desired toppings, such as extra chocolate, nuts, granola, peanut butter, etc.
  5. Bake 35-40 minutes and have a dance party because your tastebuds are about to be Stoked.
