Coconut Almond Brownies (Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free)(Makes 12 small brownies)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (you could use almond extract too)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 2 tbsp light coconut milk
- 1/2 cup flaked, sweetened coconut
- 1/3 cup toasted, sliced almonds
Mix the cocoa powder with the melted coconut oil. Whisk in eggs, sugar and vanilla. Fold in the flour and mix until incorporated.
Grease an 8×8 baking dish with butter or coconut oil. Spread in half of the batter. Sprinkle with the coconut and almonds. Using a silicone spatula, spread the remaining batter on top. (Note, the batter is quite thick and when spreading, you may jumble up the coconut and almond filling. This is okay – I assure you it tastes great).
Bake for about 30 – 40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted. Let cool and cut into small squares.
Hope you enjoy!
