Whether you enjoy them as an afternoon treat or a party-ready dessert, these brownies are a deliciously wholesome way to satisfy your chocolate cravings.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine the pitted Medjool dates and pulse until they form a paste-like consistency.
Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave, then allow it to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until they are light and frothy. Add in the date paste, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract, then mix until well blended.
In another bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Ensure the batter is smooth and even.
If desired, fold in the optional chopped nuts, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Allow the brownies to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before removing and cutting into squares.
Serve and enjoy your wholesome Whole30 gluten-free brownies!
