It’s back to school this week in SA (well at least for some of the kids), so I thought these very easy, nut-free and nutrient packed brownies would be a good one for you to try! They’re full of good fats, magnesium and fibre and freeze really well also, so are a great one to batch cook for those weeks when time is a bit harder to come by.

(Although from experience, they very rarely make it to the freezer!)

Ingredients

• 1 medium ripe avocado (about 1 cup)
• 2 eggs
• 72 grams of coconut sugar
• 39 grams of ghee or coconut oil (I prefer ghee) – we love @melrosehealth
• 80 grams of dark chocolate chips – we love @chowcacao
• 56 grams of almond flour
• 40 grams of cacoa powder – we love @powersuperfoods
• 5 grams of baking soda – we love @luvinlifeau
• 3 grams of sea salt
• 2mL of vanilla extract

Method

1 – Preheat your oven to 180 ºC

2 -Place avocado, eggs, vanilla, coconut sugar and ghee into a food processor and blend until well combined.

3 – Add flour, cacao powder, baking soda and salt and blend again until combined. Mix in the chocolate chips, but make sure to keep a few to place on top.

4 – Line a 9 x9 inch pan and pour mixture in. Smooth the top and place the remaining chocolate chips on top.

5 – Bake for 18 – 20 minutes (It doesn’t matter if they are a little gooey on the inside 😉)

6 – Allow to cool before slicing. Enjoy!

Let us know what you think!
