Ingredients:
- 2 cups chocolate chips (dairy-free)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- Peanut butter (as needed)
- 3 eggs
- 2/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil

- Melt 2 cups of chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Pour the melted chocolate into the prepared pan, spreading evenly.

- Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut sugar, 1/2 cup melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Stir in the oat flour, salt, and cocoa powder to form the brownie batter.
- Pour half of the brownie batter over the set chocolate and peanut butter layer in the pan.
- Carefully spread the remaining brownie batter on top, ensuring the chocolate and peanut butter layer is completely covered.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the brownies are set but still gooey in the middle.
- Allow the brownies to cool in the pan before slicing into squares.
