Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- ¾ cup creamy almond butter, unsalted
- ¼ cup apple sauce, unsweetened or sweetened (room temperature)
- ¼ cup maple syrup, room temperature
- ⅓ cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup chocolate chips, optional (plus more for topping)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8x8 inch baking pan by greasing it lightly and lining with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, thoroughly whisk together the eggs, almond butter, apple sauce, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Sift in the cocoa powder and baking soda to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined to avoid overmixing. Gently fold in the chocolate chips if using.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle additional chocolate chips over the top for an extra chocolatey finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Adjust the baking time depending on your preference for fudginess – 22 minutes is perfect for a gooier texture.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
