Healthier Brownies

To me, chocolate is like heaven. I mean who doesn't want a piece of this moist, rich and tasty slice of brownie? It's an all time classic when having guests over or when you just want to make yourself a little something. Here, I'm taking a classic brownie recipe and I've tried to make it healthier. I actually think this healthier version tastes better than the classic one! The chocolate flavour is so much more intense, and I especially love the nutty flavour! This is actually a very easy cake to make, and it keeps wonderfully in room temperature for days and days!

HEALTHIER BROWNIES

Makes 10 brownies

1 cup almond meal

2/3 cup quinoa flour / buckwheat flour

6 tbsp coconut oil

4 tbsp raw cocoa powder

3 tbsp cane sugar

1 tsp cinnamon

2 eggs

optional: 1 tsp chilli flakes

Start by preheating the oven to 180°C / 350°F. Combine all of the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. If you don't know how to make almond meal, you simply do that by pulsing almonds in a food processor for maximum 2 minutes, or before the nut oils are released. Stir in the coconut oil and the eggs. Place the batter into a lined baking dish and cook in the oven for 25 minutes. Once taken out of the oven it's all ready to be eaten and enjoyed!
