Ingredients

  • 1 + ½ Cups Almond Flour
  • ½ Cup Cacao Powder
  • ⅓ Cup Coconut Sugar Or Lakanto Monkfruit
  • ½ Tsp. Baking Soda
  • ¼ Tsp. Salt

  • 2 Flax Eggs 1 Tbs. Ground Flax + 2 ½ Tbs. Water = 1 Flax Egg
  • 1 Tsp. Vanilla

Optional

  • ¼ cup Dark Chocolate Chips

Instructions
 

Making Brownie Batter

  • Start by making your flax eggs. In a small bowl add your ground flax and water. Use a spoon or whisk to blend until fully combined. They must sit for at least five minutes!
  • Next add almond flour, cacao powder, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl. Use a whisk or fork to blend until fully combined.
  • In a separate mixing bowl add pumpkin puree, melted coconut oil, vanilla, and flax eggs. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to blend until fully combined.
  • Once your wet mixture is blended, slowly start to add the dry mixture. Once it's fully combined it should be a super thick consistency. At this time you can fold in chocolate chips, or you can wait and sprinkle them on top!

Baking

  • Use a non-stick spray or coconut oil on a paper towel to grease your baking dish. Add the batter, and use the back of a spoon or spatula to make sure it's even. If you're adding chocolate chips on top, add them now!
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 25-35 minutes depending on how deep your pan is.
  • Once they're done, remove from oven and let them cool to about room temp before cutting!
  • ENJOY!!

Notes

How to store leftovers

They can be stored at room temperature for a couple days. I would recommend putting them in glass container in the refrigerator to keep them as fresh as possible! Plus the texture is amazing when they're cold! (In my opinion!) You can also store them in the freezer in an air tight glass container! When you want to remove some to eat, you can let them defrost in the refrigerator or eat them FROZEN. (Which is my personal favorite.)
