Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
• 0.75 cup Coconut sugar
• 4 ounces Dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao), chopped
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with coconut oil.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together in 30-second increments, stirring after each session until smooth. Let it cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and coconut sugar together until frothy and well combined, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Slowly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture while stirring continuously. Add the vanilla extract and mix until smooth.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, sift together the almond flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder.

Step 6

Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula, mixing just until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs (but not wet batter).

Step 9

Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
